The council heard a proposal from a local accountant for outsourced bookkeeping at $150/month, appointed Councilmember Dana Merrill as treasurer to review the proposal, approved a planning consultant agreement, and adopted land development application and review fees.

At the Sept. 24 meeting the Village Council discussed a proposal from James Reddit of a Wilton Manors accounting office for monthly bookkeeping, QuickBooks Online integration and optional payroll/1099 processing.
