BuelltonWhat this venue asks for
From our own research on Jonata Middle School, not a general guide to permits.
Check private events are allowed
Most public courts are first come, first served. Closing part of one for a private group is a different permission, and it is the answer that decides whether the rest is worth reading.
- Yes with condition
- Yes with approval
Work out your headcount
Group size is what usually changes the paperwork. Past a certain number a simple reservation becomes a special event permit, with a different form and a longer wait.
- Courts bookable: 3
- No specific public headcount threshold published
Apply for the permit
The form, and who actually approves it.
- Buellton Union School District Facilities Use Permit / Facility Use Application
- Through Application form and Buellton Union School District will approve
Start early enough
Lead time is the step people get wrong. Approval is not instant, and the dates you most want are the ones already taken.

Sort the insurance
