MAIN LIBRARY GIFT SHOP RENTAL CHARGES - <br />FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of June 16, 1999: <br />Date: June 16,1999 <br />To: The Honorable Board of County Commissioners <br />Thru: James E. Chandler, County Administrator <br />From: Thomas W. Frame, General Services Director -&V.OduJ• <br />Subject: Rental Charges at Main Library for the Friends of the Library <br />BACKGROUND: <br />The County Attorney's office received a letter from Mary Fran Galvin, President, of the Friends <br />of the Vero Beach Public Library. The correspondence had requested consideration to reduce <br />the rent payment now being paid by the "Friends" to some nominal amount rather than the <br />current $2.50 per square foot which generates $1,800 per year to the General Fund. <br />The "Friends" would prefer to see the funds, that are currently being paid to the County as rent, <br />paid directly for the benefit of the library in the form of a donation. In reviewing what some <br />other jurisdictions are currently doing, it was found that Martin County charges no rent for their <br />used book store; the Brevard County gift shop pays no rent; Seminole County used book store <br />pays $1.00 per year; and the Broward County gift shop pays $10.00 per year. <br />ANALYSIS: <br />Currently, the Friends of the Vero Beach Public Library have contributed $2,688.00 to the Main <br />Library as of this date. If the rent payment had been in the form of a donation, one could assume <br />that the contribution for this year at this time would be closer to $4,488. The General Fund <br />Revenue would have been reduced by $1,800. <br />JUNE 229 1999 <br />10 9 <br />
