South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—February 14, 2012 <br /> 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br /> B. Airport Economic Development Area <br /> (1) continued... <br /> Park. Their past services have included the <br /> creation of websites, newsletters, collateral <br /> material, and press releases among others to <br /> promote South Bend's technology initiatives. <br /> The current BWG contact expires on <br /> February 28, 2012. This proposal continues <br /> work on one key initiative—the <br /> SouthBendOn web site and e-newsletter for a <br /> period of three months ending May 31, 2012. <br /> An attachment was provided listing the scope <br /> of services. <br /> Staff requests approval of the contact for <br /> $7,500 per month plus an additional $1,000 <br /> to cover additional communication support <br /> over these three months. The fees will be <br /> covered through the Airport Economic <br /> Development Area TIF and will not exceed <br /> $23,500. <br /> Mr. Varner asked whether staff expected the <br /> new administration to continue to contract <br /> with Blue Waters Group long term. Mr. Inks <br /> replied the purpose of this short term contract <br /> is to give the administration time to <br /> determine that. <br /> Mr. Kain pointed out that this carries on <br /> some key aspects of what BWG has been <br /> doing, for a very small amount. <br /> Ms. King asked if BWG was maintaining the <br /> web site or were they doing creative work on <br /> it. Mr. Kain said it is mostly maintenance. <br /> 6 <br />
