On Wednesday, the Montezuma-Cortez school district announced a new online facility request and rental system called Facilitron that is designed to make reservation of facilities more efficient.

“With the new system, reservation requests can be submitted easily and will be handled more efficiently,” the district said. “Renters will be able to access photos and descriptions, see real-time availability, get estimated quotes and pay online.”

Through their partnership with Facilitron, the district has created “custom facility sites” for each school in the district, making it so facility use requests can be submitted at any time.

Requests for all facilities can be made online at https://www.cortez.k12.co.us/departments/facilities-and-maintenance.

The district added that while the process of requesting of facility use is now entirely online, the process of approval is still the same. The district administrative staff will make final decisions on all requests to use the district’s facilities.

Payments that can be used through Facilitron for facility use includes major credit cards, checks, ACH/eCheck and PayPal.

Proof of insurance can also be uploaded into the system or it can be obtained directly through Facilitron.

“Moving forward, the only way to request use of a district facility is by creating a Facilitron account and submitting a request online,” the district said.

Those who already had reservations for district facilities prior to the partnership with Facilitron have already had an account created on their behalf and have been sent an email with the information needed to access the account.

Questions about Facilitron, assistance in setting up an account or submitting a facility request can be done by contacting Facilitron via email at support@facilitron.com or by calling them at (800) 272-2962.
