CITY OF LO®I COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

AGENDA TITLE: Review Proposal for City Newsletter
MEETING DATE: June 5, 1991
PREPARED BY: City Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council review the proposal for the
publication of a bi-monthy City newsletter and take
action as deemed appropriate.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: There has been informal discussions by the City
Council concerning the publication on a regular basis
of a City newsletter. Funds have been included in the
1991-92 Operating Budget. Proposals were solicited from local printing
establishments and the low price was submitted by Abrahamson Printing at $3,200
per issue. The 1991-92 Operating Budget Drovides for $36,000 for this project,
which includes printing, mailing and miscellaneous costs. There are some cost
offsets which will be reviewed with the City Council at Wednesday night's
meeting. For example, if the newsletter is not approved it will be necessary
to add to the budget $10,000-$12,000 for public information relative to the
City's Recreation programs, assuming we wish to continue promulgating that kind
of information.
City Council direction is requested at this time because the 1991-92 Operating
Budget has not yet been adopted.
FUNDING SOURCE: 1991-92 Operating Budget

Thomas A. Peterson
