MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JANUARY 17, 2012
SUBJECT: AWARD OF BID FOR PRINTING THE PLAYBOOK ACTIVITIES
BROCHURE
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Council approve the lowest bid for the printing of the Playbook
activities brochure to Graphics2 in the amount of $16,190. Bids from the three vendors
that submitted bids are attached.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds for the printing of the activities brochure are available in the following accounts.
Account 100-42200-312-7 $6,690
Account 100-42200-312-6 8,000
Account 115-42200-350-01 1,500
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Bids were received from three vendors for the printing of the Spring/Summer Playbook
activities brochure. Graphics2 was the low bid for producing 22,000 copies of the Playbook
at $16,190.
Staff contacted the vendors prior to receiving the quotes to see if it would be less
expensive to print the brochure on uncoated stock and they informed staff that there would
be no cost savings as they buy large quantities of coated stock and have to special order
uncoated stock. The vendors also said that uncoated stock uses more ink than coated
stock.
This Spring/Summer Playbook will be the last activities brochure that will be mailed to
residents. All future activities brochures will be available on-line, which is the trend for
most cities in the area because it saves funds and is more environmentally friendly.
However, staff will have approximately 1,000 brochures printed for marketing purposes and
for those residents who would rather have a hard copy of the brochure.
In closing, staff recommends the Council approve the bid for the printing of the Playbook
activities brochure to Graphics2 in the amount of$16,190.
