<P>Thanks to everyone who responded to my meeting room policy questio=
n. Here are the responses I received. </P>
<P>In Gallipolis, we charge $25.00 for the use of the meeting room. A=

re considering limiting the time, or increasing the amount charged fo=
r longer meetings. <BR><BR>Betty Clarkson<SPAN style=3D"mso-spacerun:=

on where we can have two meeting rooms or fold up the room divider an=
d have one large room. We have a system worked out so we know w=
hen one or both rooms are being used or when we need to have it as on=
e big room. This is great for large parties and wedding receptions.&n=
bsp; Our rooms are done on a donation basis for non profit and we cha=
rge $50.00 for anyone using the room for a profit example <st1:place =
w:st=3D"on">Avon</st1:place> or Tupperware parties. We have a k=
itchen available also and if the profit groups wish to use it we char=
ge an additional $50.00. Non profit can use as part of the agre=
ement. <BR>
There are bathroom facilities just outside the doors and the rooms ar=
e available after hours under certain conditions. We have a form to f=
ill out and a list of do's and don't the groups receive when signing =
the agreement. This system has been in place with some adjustme=
nts for four years now and the public enjoys and appreciates the avai=
lability of the nice facilities for a donation. Most individual=
s do donate money for the time they use the room especially if it is =
a party or large gathering. We have groups which use them on we=
ekly, bi-weekly and monthly basis like girl scouts and school booster=
