(a) The Adjutant General acting for and on behalf of the Arkansas National Guard shall issue rules and regulations concerning the rental and use of National Guard armories to any person, organization, firm, corporation, or governmental agency for any legal use for short periods of time, the armory or its facilities or portions thereof, provided the renting of the armory does not interfere with its use by the National Guard for training or other military purposes.
(b) All such rentals shall be in writing and shall contain appropriate clauses permitting immediate termination or cancellation of the rental agreement on order of the Adjutant General should the public interest or National Guard purposes necessitate the termination.
(c) No armory or facility shall be rented for less than an amount sufficient to cover all expenses, including custodian fees, utility bills, janitor service, and any repairs occasioned by such use.
(d) (1) Armory funds are those funds derived from the use of the facilities by an individual, agency, or organization other than the official users of the facilities by National Guard units quartered therein. Social meetings for members of a unit and their families, sponsored by the unit, are considered official.
(2) A full and complete record of funds received and disbursed will be maintained by the senior officer of the official using the unit and shall be subject to audit as may be required by the Adjutant General.
(3) The Adjutant General will publish rules and regulations governing the expenditure of such rental funds with a limitation of ten percent (10%) of the annual income limited to unit social purposes.
