Additional Rental Information

Liability Insurance

If you are renting from us and serving alcohol, you must obtain a minimum of $5 million alcohol liability insurance, and the Township of North Kawartha must be named as an "Additional Insured". There is no additional charge to have the Township named as an "Additional Insured". We require a copy of the insurance prior to your event.

Special Occasion Permit (SOP)

Our Community Centres do not have permanent Liquor Licences. If you are wishing to serve alcohol at your event, you will need to obtain a Special Occasion Permit (SOP) and alcohol liability insurance. In addition, you must use bartenders who have Smart Serve Training Certificates, and follow all other rules listed on our Rental Agreement. We require a copy of your SOP, a copy of your liability insurance, and a list of the names and Smart Serve certificate numbers of your bartenders, prior to your event. If these conditions are not met, alcohol cannot be permitted at your event.

Special Occasion Permits (SOP) are for the sale and/or service of beverage alcohol at special occasions such as weddings, charity fundraisers, receptions etc. An SOP is needed anytime alcohol is offered for sale or served anywhere other than in a licensed establishment or a private place (for example, a private office or a residence). As of April 1, 2018, Special Occasion Permits are issued exclusively online via the Alcohol & Gaming Commission of Ontario website.

If you are renting a facility and will have fundraising games planned or lottery type tickets sold, you may require a Lottery Licence issued by the Lottery Licence Officer at the Township. A lottery can be defined as paying for a chance to win a prize. Charitable and non-profit organizations may be eligible for a licence. Rules for lotteries are determined by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission or speak to the Lottery Licence Officer at the North Kawartha Municipal Office. Please allow 30 days for your eligibility and lottery application review and potential approval.
