  • Limit or refuse use of a facility at the discretion of the Town’s Municipal Emergency Control Group and/or the Director of Operations and Environmental Services.


Refunds will be provided if permits must be amended or cancelled for these reasons only.

Refunds will NOT be provided in the event of a COVID-19 positive case amongst the user/permit holder group.

Outdoor Rentals for picnic shelters do not receive a refund.

Transfers must be booked within a calendar year from the original date booked. The difference in fees as a result of the transfer, if any, will either be charged or refunded.
