The yearly contract proposal included Web Site and Logo Design - $2,500.00, a monthly retainer fee - $200.00, no charge for the username and passwords and training at no charge. Following the presentation, the members and PSCI representatives discussed many issues that could arise in relation to APC Website such as advertising revenues, additional users and so forth. It was the consensus of that discussion that many issues could not be resolved at this time but would be on going. Mr. Buse stated that if the board approved the contract for services with PSCI as outline, PSCI would maintain close contact with the board to address any ongoing changes that may occur as far as those mentioned issues. Mr. Buse also stated that the $200.00 monthly retainer fee was calculated on 5 hours of services per month. If however, APC does not use the total of the 60 hours during the year’s time, PSCI would reimburse APC any dollars applicable.
