Council approves one-year Municode contract for online codification at $5,021
Summary
The City Council approved a one-year contract with Municode to host the city’s codified ordinances; staff said the data remains city property, year‑one cost is $5,021 and ongoing service would be about $2,725 per year with a 60‑day termination option.
The City Council voted to approve a one-year contract with Municode for online codification services after a presentation by staff. Staff member Jill said the contract preserves the city’s data and allows the city to download its files if it later terminates the service.
Jill described the pricing and contract terms, saying, "Year 1 total cost is $5,000.21," and that year‑two recurring service would be about $2,725; she also said the city can terminate the service with a 60‑day notice. Committee members discussed whether to approve a single year and revisit renewal later; the council approved the one‑year contract on a roll‑call vote.
The contract covers hosting and codification features staff requested, including three codebooks included in the quoted package. Councilors confirmed the city will retain access to its data and the vendor will provide export files on termination. The motion passed on the council floor and the mayor announced that the motion carries.
The decision sends the codification work live under a one‑year arrangement; councilors indicated they expect to revisit the contract in a subsequent meeting before committing to longer-term service.
