Commission weighs mailing a multi-page survey to 351 Stamford households; cost estimated under $700
Summary
Members discussed a Bex Printing quote to mail a multi‑page survey and a half-sheet announcement to roughly 351 Stamford ZIP‑code addresses; initial vendor estimate noted as "under $700," and staff will check turnaround and whether removing the half-sheet reduces cost.
Speaker 4 told the commission that a bulk mail quote from Bex Printing to send the full survey and a half‑sheet announcement to about 351 Stamford addresses came in at "under $700 for, the mailing." Members debated whether to absorb that cost within the existing grant budget or to reduce pages to lower the price.
Commissioners raised timing concerns and alternatives if the print vendor could not get mail out quickly enough before the May 30 walk. Speaker 4 agreed to ask the vendor how much lead time the printer would need and whether removing the half‑sheet or omitting stuffing would significantly change the quote.
