Subsequently, only two proposals were submitted resulting in a contract award to Futuresign Multimedia Displays Inc., The proposal received by Futuresign Multimedia Displays Inc., at the time resulted in the highest overall revenue to the Municipality and was approximately 100 and twenty percent (120%) higher than that of the second bidder. The subject firm have provided satisfactory service for the Municipality throughout the term of the contract and have proposed a three year extension to the initial term which expires August 31, 2003. As advertising must be sold in advance of each ice season, it is necessary to extend the contract now in order to ensure there is no gap in the revenues received. Staff in co- operation with Futuresign Multimedia Displays Inc. have negotiated a proposed agreement increasing the guaranteed revenue to the Municipality over the three year term from $32,950.00 to $64,000.00 payable in yearly instalments of $16,000.00 September 1,2003, $24,000.00 in 2004 and $24,000.00 in the year 2005. As the sale of advertising for 2003 would commence immediately, a forthwith approval is requested. For the information of Council attached is a copy of the proposed agreement marked Schedule "C". After further review and analysis of the proposals by Purchasing and Community Services, it was mutually agreed that the proposal from Futuresign Multimedia Displays Inc., Aurora, Ontario, be accepted and that the monies received be credited to the Community Services Advertising Fees Revenue Account # 6400-00102-0000.
