Microwave Rental Agreement

This lease agreement is nontransferable and is only valid for residents with a current Residence Halls or Apartment Housing Agreement.

Students living in any of our apartment areas, including Benchmark Plaza, Shoreline Ridge, Downtown Commons or Marriott Honors Community will have Microwaves in the common area of their apartment. You still are allowed to rent a Microwave for your personal bedroom if you choose to.

The renter (student) agrees to the following:

1. At termination of this agreement, the renter shall return the microwave to the location designated in the semester closing materials in the same condition; normal wear and tear is accepted. The renter understands that if the equipment is damaged, or parts are missing, due to negligence, misuse, or for any other reason, the renter is responsible and will pay for its replacement. The renter is also responsible for replacement cost if the Microwave is not returned (whether due to loss, theft, vandalism, etc.). The charge for this will be based on market value.
2. If the renter wishes to terminate the agreement during a normal school year contract (two full semesters), the rental will be refunded per unused semester. No refund will be given after the second week of the semester.
3. The renter will return the Microwave unit to the designated location at the end of the contract term clean and dry (dry being interpreted as “no moisture evident to the touch in the unit”). Renter will be charged $23.00 if the unit is not clean and dry. It is the renter’s responsibility to return the Microwave; it will not be picked up by Housing & Residential Education staff.
4. If the Microwave is found abandoned in a room or building, the fee will be $25.00. Remember the contract is under your name and it is your responsibility, (not your roommate or resident advisor), to return the Microwave as agreed.
5. Any damages to the unit or applicable charges will be charged to the student’s Tuition & Housing account.

Students living in the Marriott Honors Community do not have the option to purchase In-Room Phone Lines. Students living in Downtown Commons must contact a local phone service provider to activate a phone line in their room, the University of Utah is not able to provide in-room phone lines in that community.

1. You may request a personal phone line in your room. Students must pay a set up fee and a monthly subscription to the landline service.
2. In the event of a room change, a new set-up fee must be paid. Your presence will be needed at the Housing Residential Education office to make this request.
3. After the installation is completed, any further problem with the phone line will be directed to our phone provider Netcom at (801) 581-4000. They will provide assistance for any technical support and answer any questions you may have about the service you are receiving.
4. When a landline is no longer needed, a one month notice is required to be given to the Housing Residential Education office. Failure to do so will result in a monthly charge until we receive such notice.

In-room phones are no longer provided in the residence halls or apartments.  In some buildings, the room is equipped with a telephone jack. Plug your land-line phone* into the phone jack on the wall outlet of your room and you can have your own personal University of Utah number!

The renter (student) of this personal storage space understands and agrees to the following:

1. Storage is for a personal storage of non-perishable items only. The renter is not allowed to store any items prohibited in the residence halls (i.e. weapons, alcohol, flammable items, etc).

   compartments will be removed without notice and disposed of.

4. Failure to comply with any part of this agreement will result in the loss of access to storage and the renter will forfeit any rental fees paid.
5. Housing & Residential Education accepts no responsibility for any items in the storage room; neither offers any kind of
   insurance or protection for it. A lock and personal property insurance is strongly recommended; the lock will not be
   provided by HRE.
6. I understand fraudulent use or misuse of the storage unit potentially could constitute a crime under state and/or federal law and thus subject me to both HRE and university sanctions as well as legal ramifications.
7. Students must remove any personal belongings from their storage space at the end of their contract period (unless they are returning from spring semester to fall semester and wish to pay the summer semester storage fee). Any belongings left for more than 10 days after a student ends their contract with Housing & Residential Education will be removed and processed. All items must be removed by May 1 each year. Students utilizing storage during the summer semester will be able to move their belongings after the first day of classes.
8. I understand that the storage space is to be used only by the renter. The renter is not allowed to sublease or transfer
   their storage space to anyone else (including shared usage with other Marriott Honors Community residents).
9. Misuse of storage unit or failure to fully comply with all aspects of this agreement could result in not being allowed to use storage in the future.

This storage area is great for skiers or snowboarders. Due to limited space, availability is based on first-come, first-serve basis.
