January 6, 2025 SUBJECT: Bid Award: Official City Newspaper Contract - 2025 SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT: Purchasing MAYORAL APPROVAL: FINANCE APPROVAL: BUDGET APPROVAL: EXPENDITURE REQUIRED Per Rate Schedule AMOUNT BUDGETED $18,000.00 APPROPRIATION REQUIRED $0.00 LINE ITEM NUMBER 101-210-000-881-000 BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Sealed and/or electronic proposals were solicited by the Purchasing Division for professional services related to the 2025 Official City Newspaper Contract until December 20, 2024 at 10:00am, at which time the bids were scheduled to be publicly opened and read aloud. This bid was advertised in the MarketPlace newspaper, as well as appearing on MITN, and our website at www.cityofwestland.com. To encourage multiple responses, the City also directly invited the Eagle, the Telegram, and the Observer, who handles all legal notices for the Detroit Free Press & the Detroit News, to bid on this contract. One (1) response was received from this solicitation in total. The bid tabulation is attached, for your review. The administration recommends awarding this contract to the lone bidder, Don Nicholson Enterprises LLC, DBA The Marketplace News, for a term commencing immediately, and expiring on December 31, 2025. Upon approval, the rate schedule shall be as follows: Synopsis of Minutes = $370 each; Invitations to Bid = $185.00 each; Ordinance Amendments = $370.00 each; Notice of Meetings = $185.00 each. Please note that the Marketplace prints its paper monthly, which comes with a readership of approximately 10,000.00. Given recent industry changes, where there is no paid paper of general circulation in Westland, an impossibility of performance was created. However, the administration believes that this recommendation satisfies charter requirements as it relates to printed publication. As an additional effort to comply with the spirit of the publication laws and charter provisions, the City has also established a link for placement of Legal Notices under its Public Notices tab on our City Website. The administration will continue to monitor this topic to see if legislature approves the use of an on-line publication of all city legal notices in the future. Concurrently, the City Attorney's Office has prepared a contract for this award, which is attached for review. For easy reference, the City Attorneys opinion on this topic from 2023 is also attached as additional support. RECOMMENDED ACTION: The administration recommends approving Don Nicholson Enterprises LLC, DBA The Marketplace News, as its Official newspaper vendor for 2025.
