The Village Manager explained that the Dade County League of Municipalities has set up a Labor Relations Board consisting of four members skilled in labor relations that member cities can call upon to handle their labor problems. He also said that the League had asked for an expression of the members regarding the use of the emergency telephone number "911".

Mr. Maley said that due to the falsifying of his age on his application for employment, Edward Janaskie's pension was not properly funded and that it would cost the village an additional $1,827.15.
