<br />Item No: 9A <br />Meeting Date: January 10, 2005 <br />Type of Business: CB <br />City Administrator Review: _____ <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Desaree Crane, Administrative Assistant to <br />Administration <br /> <br />Item Title/Subject: Consideration of Resolution 6423, Selection of the <br />Official City Newspaper, Acting Mayor, Treasurer and <br />Official Depositories for 2005 <br /> <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />The Focus and The Bulletin have each submitted proposals to be the City’s official <br />newspaper for 2005. (See attached.) The Council selected The Bulletin as the City’s <br />primary newspaper last year. Both newspapers have put in bids (letters attached), and The <br />Bulletin’s rates continue to be slightly less. Both newspapers accept legal notices via e-mail. <br /> <br />Last year and in years previous the Council selected the St. Paul Pioneer Press as the City’s <br />secondary newspaper. Although the Pioneer Press did not submit a proposal this year, it <br />would certainly be acceptable for the Council to select the Pioneer Press as the City’s <br />secondary newspaper. <br /> <br />In addition, the attached resolution appoints treasurer consistent with Section 6.04 of the <br />City Charter. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Review Resolution 6423, select an official newspaper and Acting Mayor and adopt <br />Resolution 6423. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />1. Letter from Sun Newspapers <br />2. Letter from Lillie Suburban Newspapers, Inc. <br /> <br /> <br />
