Manson <br />The City has received a quote from Lillie Suburban Newspapers for 2012 Legal Newspaper <br />designation. No other quotes were received. Below is a comparison of this quote with 2010 rates: <br />2011 2012 <br />Lillie Lillie <br />Suburban Suburban <br />Floor Agendas $85 $88 <br />Legal Rate $7.25/In. $7.60/In. <br />You will note from the quote attached that Lillie Suburban is quoting a cost of $445 per month for <br />publication of Council meeting minutes. As you will recall, in 2000 the City began mailing Council <br />meeting minutes to property owners who requested this service in lieu of publishing the minutes. <br />Currently, there are 7 property owners on the mailing list. Based on calculations put together a few <br />years ago, the cost for mailing minutes to a few property owners is substantially less than publication <br />costs. Given the limited number of requests for mailed minutes, as well as their availability on the <br />City's Web site, staff recommends that the City continue the practice of mailing minutes upon <br />request rather than publishing them. <br />It is staff's recommendation that Lillie Suburban Newspapers be designated as the City's legal <br />newspaper for 2012. <br />
