GENERAL PROVISIONS FOR AMENITIES USAGE
The District is a local unit of special-purpose government, created pursuant to and existing under the provisions of Chapter 190, Florida Statutes. The District operates and maintains various public improvements and community facilities, including the Amenities.

The Board reserves the right to amend, modify, or delete, in part or in their entirety, these Policies when necessary and will notify the Patrons of any changes by posting the same on the District’s website, www.riversedgecdd.com. By signing that you have received and read these policies, you are additionally certifying you will read, understand, and comply with all policies, including but not limited to any later made revisions.

Only Patrons and Guests have the right to use the Amenities, provided however that community programming events (described later) may be available to the general public where permitted by the District, and subject to payment of any applicable fees and satisfaction of any other applicable requirements.

Residents. A Resident, by paying its annual assessment applicable to Residents, are provided the right to use the Amenities. Such payment must be made in accordance with the District’s annual assessment collection resolution and typically will be included on the

Resident’s property tax bill. Payment of this assessment entitles the Resident to use the Amenities for one full fiscal year of the District, which year begins October 1 and ends September 30.
Non-Residents. A Non-Resident Patron must pay the Annual User Fee applicable to Non- Residents in order to have the right to use the Amenities for one full year, which year begins from the date of receipt of payment by the District. This fee must be paid in full before the Non- Resident may use the Amenities. Each subsequent Annual User Fee shall be paid in full on the anniversary date of application.

Renter’s Privileges. Residents who rent or lease residential unit(s) in the District shall have the right to designate the Renter of the residential unit(s) as the beneficial users of the Resident’s privileges to use the Amenities.

A Renter who is designated as the beneficial user of the Resident’s rights to use the Amenities shall be entitled to the same rights and privileges to use the Amenities as the Resident. A Renter will be required to provide proof of residency (minimum 12-month lease agreement, and complete a landlord-tenant agreement form) and pay any applicable fee before he or she receives an Access Card.
During the period when a Renter is designated as the beneficial user, the Resident shall not be entitled to use the Amenities.
Residents shall be responsible for all charges incurred by their Renters which remain unpaid after the customary billing and collection procedure established by the District. Resident owners are responsible for the deportment of their respective Renter.
Renters shall be subject to all Amenities Rules as the Board may adopt from time to time.

Guests. Each Patron Family is issued 12 Guest passes annually for no charge. Privileges included with a guest pass include the use of the Amenities in accordance with these policies. There is no charge for children 3-years-old and under brought as Guests, and they do not count against guest passes. Once the passes are used, one additional 12 Guest pass may be purchased, pursuant to these policies for $50. Except as otherwise provided for herein, each Patron Family may bring a maximum of four Guests to the Amenities at any one visit, provided however that Guests must be accompanied by a Patron who is at least eighteen years of age when using the Amenities and provided however that the Patron will be responsible for any harm caused by the Patron’s Guests while using the Amenities. For clarification purposes, the preceding sentence shall be construed to place a four Guest limitation per visit on the total number of Guests that a Patron may bring on behalf of that Patron’s particular Family – e.g., a Patron Family consisting of four people cannot bring up to four Guests each for a total of sixteen Guests, but instead can only bring a total of four Guests per visit on behalf of the entire household. Guests shall be subject to all Rules as the Board may adopt from time to time. To better manage use of the facilities, the District Operations Manager in his or her discretion may require Patrons and Guests to “sign-in” prior to accessing the Amenities and/or to wear District-issued bracelets or other identification at the Amenities in order to better identify authorized users of the Amenities.

Registration / Disclaimer.

The provisions of this Paragraph 3 shall not at any time serve to reduce any suspensions or terminations pursuant to Paragraph 2.c, above or Paragraph 4, below, which may have been imposed prior to the expiration of any offenses.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any time a Patron, or Patron’s family member or guest, is arrested for an act committed, or allegedly committed, while on the premises of the River Club, or violates these Policies in a manner that, in the discretion of the River Club Staff

upon consultation with one (1) Board member, justifies suspension beyond the guidelines set forth above, such Patron shall have all amenity privileges immediately suspended until the next Board of Supervisors meeting. At the Board meeting, the Board will be  presented with the facts surrounding the arrest or violation and the Board may make a recommendation of suspension or termination of the Patron’s privileges, which suspension or termination may include members of the Patron’s household and may, upon the first offense, equal to or exceed one year.

Any suspension or termination of River Club privileges may be appealed to the Board of Supervisors for reversal or reduction. The Board’s decision on appeal shall be final.
