Commission approves quarterly 'Clementine' newsletter contract, invoices and consent agenda

The Mount Clemens City Commission voted to continue publication and distribution of the city’s quarterly Clementine newsletter through CG Newspapers at a listed rate of $1,410.98 per quarter, with the yearly total shown during the presentation. Staff said the publication goes to every household in the city—about 5,000 to 6,000 addresses—and also reaches some adjoining townships.

Council also moved to approve the work session and regular meeting minutes of June 17, 2019. Separate motions to approve purchase payments and invoices as presented, and to accept the consent agenda, were each moved, seconded and approved by roll call.

Roll-call results for the minutes approval and the consent items were recorded in the meeting transcript as affirmative votes from the commissioners present. The meeting did not record a formal objection or a request to pull items from the consent agenda.
