MICEC Inclement Weather Policy

Mercer Island Community and Event Center (MICEC) Operations

As deemed necessary by the Chief of Operations (or designee); facility operations, services, and/or operating hours may be altered due to inclement weather. Information regarding facility status, services, and programing will be available at: https://www.mercerisland.gov/parksrec, and updated as necessary during inclement weather.

Facility Rentals

The Parks and Recreation Department may cancel a facility rental due to inclement weather, staff will contact the rental group, providing notice and refund/rescheduling options. Cancelations and/or requests for refunds by rental groups citing inclement weather, despite the MICEC or facilities ability to operate, must be submitted in writing to Rentals@MercerIsland.gov for review. In the event of a rental cancelation, it will be the renter’s responsibility to communicate changes to their patrons or attendees.
