Summary

The city clerk will place a one-time 1/16-page ad (~$400) in Cloverdale Connect to inform residents how to contact the city; staff reported ongoing audio-visual problems at CPAC with video still not fully operational and said long-term fixes will likely require a budget amendment.

The city clerk told the committee the city will run a one-time 1/16-page ad in Cloverdale Connect to inform residents how to reach city staff via social media, email, phone or in person. The ad size cited was a one-sixteenth page and the estimated cost for the insertion was about $400; staff noted a 10% discount if run regularly but recommended a single insertion for now.

Separately, staff and the mayor reported continuing audio-visual problems at the CPAC meeting room. Multiple vendors provided quotes that exceed current budget allocations, and the video side of the AV system remains unreliable. Staff said audio performance has improved but video requires additional work; resolving the issue long term will likely require a budget amendment and staff will work with IT and council for direction.
