The Village Manager read a letter received from the Palm Beach County Resources Development Board whereby they requested three members from the Village of North Palm Beach, Florida, be appointed directors. After dis— cussion, the council requested on motion of Councilman Schwencke, seconded by Councilman H. A. Ross, all members voting aye, the Village Attorney prepare a resolution appointing Albin R.

Councilman Schwencke read a report to the council regarding the matter of charges to be assessed the Village of North Palm Beach for space rent in the Village Hall, together with charges for utilities and employee services. After discussion by the council, motion was made by Councilman H. A. Ross, seconded by Councilman White, all members voting aye, that the Village Attorney prepare a resolution setting the rental, utility, and employee services charges for the period January 1, 1957, to and including October 31, 1957, at $9,974. The following is a copy of the report: 'BUILDING COPRt4Il°1'EE REPORT "This is a report of the committee to ascertain a fair rental charge to the Village for the space occupied in the building and also to measure whatever other expenses have been supplied the Village by North Palm Beach Properties, Inc. since January 1, 1957. "The schedule sets out a fair and equitable rental charge for the space occupied and also a fair and equitable method of charging for services that have been supplied the Village by North Palm Beach Properties, Inc. "In passing, let me state that the rental based on the gross of 12 per cent a year is well below that which normal investors will accept for rental property. As regards the charges for employment, only three people are shown on the schedule that do part time work for the Village. Many other employees of North Palm Beach Properties, Inc. from time to time have been used in the interest of the Village but no attempt has been made to charge for their services. It is my opinion that these figures will be sufficient to render an accounting through the twelve calendar months of 1957 and that they should be reviewed shortly after the beginning of next year to ascertain the charges for 1958.
