Park Picnic & Facility Rentals

Park Picnic & Facility Rentals

General Rental Information
The District has the following available for rent:
Once you have determined the location you would like to rent, you should make sure you have completed the:
  • Appropriate application, described above.
  • Review of any applicable use policies or rules and regulations, found in the application.
  • Fee payment, through our Resident Services office at (916) 933-6624 ext. 0 or online for Park Picnic Areas. The District accepts Visa and Master Card.
  • Liability Insurance (if required for your event).
Vendors
Some things to consider before committing to bringing in any vendor for your event:
  • If electricity is required, the vendor must use their own generator for power. It is the renter’s responsibility to ensure the vendor has this option available. Any costs associated with this are the renter's responsibility.
  • Placement of the item. If a vendor is bringing in an inflatable bounce house, those types of items are usually staked down for security. The District wants to make sure placement is correct to eliminate any potential problems with staking irrigation lines.
  • If the number of guests attending your event is significant, then you may want to consider renting portable restrooms and/or hand washing stations to accommodate the number of guests. The District will coordinate with the vendor on placement as the District does not allow vehicles on the turf area. Costs and/or damages associated with this are the renter’s responsibility.
  • The District may require security services if the number of guests attending your event is significant (i.e. 100+).
Liability Insurance should be in the amount of $1,000,000 naming El Dorado Hills Community Services District as the certificate holder and as additional insured. Insurance may be arranged with your personal insurance company.
Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) Permit is legally required when selling alcoholic beverages. The applicant is required to notify and obtain the permit from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control at https://www.abc.ca.gov/. The District requires a copy of the final permit before the event can take place.

Food Trucks and Food Vendors
Food trucks are not allowed at some parks. Please verify if you can have a food truck on the online park picnic reservation page.
Requests for food truck usage or bringing in food vendors in coordination with a District Facility Rental Application, Park Picnic Area Rental, or Special Use Application require this food truck/vendor specific supplemental application for each food truck/vendor. This application is effective only for the event date(s) and location reserved. The fee for each food truck/vendor is $150 and is the responsibility of the renter.

Food trucks/vendors are expected to follow all rules and regulations set forth by El Dorado County and comply with all County Health Inspectors and their agents. The food truck/vendor shall provide the following required documentation at least two (2)weeks prior to the event:
1. Business License
2. El Dorado County Health Permit
3. Food Safety Certification
4. Certificate of Insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 naming El Dorado Hills CSD as additional insured  

Only a designated employee of the District shall assign the food truck/vendor, in its sole discretion, a designated space within the requested facility area for the event. Food trucks/vendors are required to provide their own connections and power (i.e. generator). The food truck/vendor shall not affix any personal property to District premises without the District’s prior written consent. The space provided to the food truck/vendor must be left in the same condition at the end of the event as it was upon arrival. Food trucks/vendors are expected to take their business’ trash with them at the end of the event. The renter is responsible for ensuring the vendor submits all required documentation prior to the event and follows all District requirements during their event.

Food Trucks/Vendors may only sell food and non-alcoholic beverages. No branded merchandise sales are allowed.
