ACTION REQUESTED:
Title
Communication from the City Manager and Corporation Counsel for RATIFICATION and APPROVAL of PAYMENT for Advertising Services with Radio Station WPNV.
Body
BACKGROUND: The City has for some time utilized services of WPNV, a local radio station, to advertise for City employment, contracting and purchasing events, and career fairs held by the City in an effort to attract a more diverse workforce. In March of 2016, the City received the invoices for these services, a copy of which are attached, for a total amount of $ 937.00. While payment of these invoices would not typically need Council approval, it is necessary now since ratification is required by virtue of Council Member Moore’s recent transition from an unpaid position to a paid position with WPNV’s parent non-for-profit corporation, the Black Business Alliance Peoria Chapter Inc. (“BBAPC”).
