(announcements not discussed).
1. Sorenson Unity Center: marketing plan placed at your seat at Council meeting tonight, July 14, 2005. Staff will review and provide memo. If you have questions please contact Gary Mumford or your liaison.
2. Hoffine Printing info: Council staff recently received notice from the Administration that it is time to consider whether to renew Hoffine Printing’s contract. Hoffine Printing provides the service of a 4-page newspaper print newsletter. Hoffine was the only vendor who submitted a proposal for newspaper print. According to Hoffine, newspaper print is recyclable as opposed to the glossy type newsletter paper. However, Council staff has encountered some previous problems working with Hoffine which raises concerns for Council staff.
Council staff has attached a cost comparison and effectiveness on different newsletter options for the Council’s consideration. Is it the Council’s interest to renew the contract with Hoffine Printing and continue with the 4-page newspaper print or would the Council prefer that Council staff continue exploring other newsletter options/vendors?
