Item #8a <br /> <br />Memorandum <br /> <br />Januaw 28,2000 <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />Northstar Corridor Development Authority <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Administrative Team <br /> <br />Subject: <br /> <br />Amendment to the Agreement with Shandwick to Provide <br />Public Information and Public Involvement Services <br /> <br />At its December 9, 1999 meeting, the NCDA approved the 2000 budget and the <br />contract amendments for 2000. In the 2000 budget, under the category <br />Community and Public Involvement, is a line item amount of $85,000 for a direct <br />mailing. The direct mailing will be a six-page newsletter that will be sent to <br />300,000 residents in the Northstar Corridor. The current Agreement with <br />Shandwick includes the professional services necessary to produce the <br />newsletter. It does not include sufficient funding to cover the direct costs such as <br />postage and printing. <br /> <br />The Administrative Team is requesting that the Shandwick Agreement be <br />amended to include the cost of the direct mailing. The cost estimate for this <br />mailing is approximately $70,000 (see attachment). <br /> <br />Action Requested: The Administrative Team requests that the NCDA authorize <br />the Chair to execute an amendment to the Agreement between the NCDA and <br />Shandwick, in an amount not to exceed $70,000 to cover the direct costs as <br />described above. <br /> <br /> <br />
