Residents may reserve the garden pavilion without a fee when their event is open to the public, provided they submit a cleanup plan and finish before nine in the evening. Private events pay the standard rental charge, although registered charities can request a reduction.
Your tasks
- Write an accurate paraphrase of the public-event rule.
- Explain the separate private-event exception.

Answer
A public event can use the pavilion free only with a cleanup plan and an end time before nine. Private events normally pay, while registered charities may ask—not automatically qualify—for a reduction.
How to reach it
- Identify eligible event type.
- Retain both conditions.
- Preserve request as possibility rather than guaranteed discount.
Evidence
The paraphrase must preserve may, when, provided, and before; the charity clause changes potential price, not event classification.
Review your attempt
- Did any condition disappear?
- Did you turn permission or request into certainty?
Take it further
Write one distractor changing only modal strength and one changing only event type.
