Missouri Code of State Regulations › Title 3 - DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION › Division 10 - Conservation Commission › Chapter 4 - Wildlife Code: General Provisions › Section 3 CSR 10-4.118 - Public Use of Certain Department Buildings

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 14, July 15, 2024
PURPOSE: This rule establishes standards and
				  procedures for authorizing public use of certain department-owned or leased
				  buildings.
(1) Except as
				otherwise provided in this Code, by special area regulations or as stipulated
				by the director, business hours of department buildings may be established by
				the site administrator. Public use of department buildings for purposes other
				than the primary building function is prohibited, except that use by other
				government entities or not-for-profit organizations involved in fish, forestry
				and/or wildlife resources conservation may be authorized, at times and under
				conditions that do not interfere with the department building
				function.
(2) Special Building Use
				Permit.
(A) Any person, organization or
				government entity seeking use of a department building must apply for a special
				building use permit on forms provided by the department.
(B) Failure to properly complete and provide
				all requested information on the application shall result in denial of a
				permit.
(C) Applications may be
				submitted by mail, in person to the site administrator during established
				business hours or to another designated location, but must be received at least
				seven (7) days prior to the date of the requested building use.
(D) A permit shall be issued or denied by the
				site administrator no later than three (3) calendar days following receipt of
				the completed application.
(E) The
				permit shall specify the conditions, including any restrictions, under which
				the permittee is authorized to conduct an activity during a time period
				specified. Upon expiration of a permit, a new permit may be issued based on a
				new application.
(F) The site
				administrator shall issue permits on a first-come, first-served
				basis.
(G) The site administrator
				may disapprove an application or cancel an issued permit, including an activity
				in progress, if the activity violates any provisions or restrictions of the
				permit.
(H) Nothing in this rule
				shall prevent the site administrator from reserving certain times for official
				government business; setting aside certain days and times for maintenance,
				construction or repair; preempting an approved use to allow for official
				government business; or prohibiting use to all applicants.
(I) Services normally provided at a building
				shall be provided without charge. The applicant may be required to pay costs
				for utilities, maintenance, supporting physical arrangements or additional
				personnel over and above the services normally provided. The site administrator
				may require a deposit in the amount of estimated additional costs before
				issuing a permit. Payment of additional costs may be waived by the site
				administrator where it is impractical to identify the additional costs or where
				the amount is small.
