Cole County commissioners approve $6,500 advertising contract with Zimmer Communications
Summary
On June 2 the Cole County Commission voted unanimously to approve a $6,500 advertising contract with Zimmer Communications, following a motion by Commissioner Harry Otto and a second from Commissioner Jeff Hoelscher; the expenditure was described in the minutes as "for advertising as announced by the Sheriff."
Commissioner Harry Otto moved on June 2 that the Cole County Commission sign a contract with Zimmer Communications for $6,500 to fund advertising announced by the sheriff; Commissioner Jeff Hoelscher seconded the motion and the commission voted unanimously in favor (Commissioner Sam Bushman Yes; Commissioner Jeff Hoelscher Yes; Commissioner Harry Otto Yes).
The motion was recorded under the "Bids & Contracts" agenda item in the minutes and is entered as an approved expenditure. The minutes identify the amount ($6,500) and the vendor (Zimmer Communications) and attribute the need for the advertising to a sheriff announcement; the minutes do not provide the contract's term, scope of the advertising campaign, or a budget line item beyond the dollar amount recorded.
The commission's vote was unanimous and recorded in the minutes; the transcript does not show further debate or a recorded abstention. The minutes indicate routine procurement action to authorize payment and execution of the contract with Zimmer Communications.
The commission later recessed until 4:30 p.m. and adjourned at 4:30 p.m.; the next scheduled meeting is June 9 at 9:00 a.m.
