He noted that he was rated by the Council as satisfactory <br />or above in all areas and it was deemed appropriate to give him a 4% pay step and 19 days of <br />vacation. He noted that these were approved as a Consent Agenda item, but he wanted to give an <br />update to the residents. <br /> <br />Graphic Design Contest <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen stated that at a recent Work Session, the Council approved a contest for <br />graphic design of the new Ramsey Resident. He stated that he would like to propose, instead of <br />a contest, that the City just pick a few graphic artists to give us ideas. <br /> <br />Assistant City Administrator Nelson noted that there are on-line options to deal with contest type <br />situations, but they deal more with logo development. She stated that she is somewhat concerned <br />about how this will work based on feedback she has gotten from graphic artists. . <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen stated that this was some of the feedback he had also gotten. He <br />suggested that the City solicit some sort of quoting process rather than a contest. <br /> <br />The Council discussed the merits of a contest versus hiring the design work out. <br /> <br />City Administrator Ulrich stated that staff can solicit quotes from graphic artists for the Council <br />to discuss. He stated that it would be more qualifications and not necessarily a hard quote or bid <br />for the actual design work. <br /> <br />Councilmember Look asked what would happen if the City picks someone for this project and <br />the City doesn't like what they come back with. He stated that he works in this field and doesn't <br />feel there will be a problem finding people to do this work. <br /> <br />Councilmember McGlone asked that the City just ask for proposals for the design and if the City <br />decides to take it, then they will get paid. He stated that he doesn't think the City needs to spend <br />a nickel. <br /> <br />City Council / June 9, 2009 <br />Page 12 of 14 <br />
