Council approves consent agenda; city attorney clarifies West Publishing contract funding
Summary
Council approved the consent agenda, including a multi-year agreement with West Publishing Corporation (Resolution 26-25); City Attorney David Brodie confirmed the cost was budgeted but the five-year span exceeds administrative purchasing limits so expenses will be spread over five years.
The Coon Rapids City Council approved the consent agenda on Jan. 20, which included authorizing an agreement with West Publishing Corporation and adopting Resolution 26-25 to approve a related budget amendment.
Councilmember Brad Greskowiak asked whether the West Publishing expense had been budgeted. City Attorney David Brodie confirmed the expense was included in the budget but noted the contract spans five years and therefore exceeds the city's administrative purchasing limit, so costs will be allocated across the five-year period.
The consent agenda motion passed unanimously.
