A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ANAHEIM ACCEPTING A SEALED PROPOSAL AND
AWARDING A CONTRACT TO THE LOWEST RESPONSIBLE
BIDDER WHOSE BID BEST RESPONDS IN QUALITY,
FITNESS AND CAPACITY, FOR ALL LEGAL ADVERTISING
REQUIRED BY LAW TO BE PUBLISHED IN A NEWSPAPER
OF GENERAL CIRCULATION, PRINTED AND PUBLISHED
WITHIN THE CITY.
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Anaheim did
cause to be published in a newspaper of general circulation,
printed, published and circulated in the City of Anaheim, to wit:
Anaheim Bulletin, on the 13th and 19th days of July, 1963, a
notice inviting sealed proposals for furnishing the following
legal advertising:
For all legal advertising to be done by the
City of Anaheim, required by law to be published
in a newspaper of general circulation printed
and published within said City, for the year
commencing August 1, 1963 and ending July 31,
1964, in conformity with the specifications for
such advertising, which specifications are marked
and designated Specifications for Printing and
Advertising of the City of Anaheim, Series of
1959," on file in the office of the City Clerk
of the City of Anaheim.
AND WHEREAS, said notice inviting sealed proposals for
said legal advertising did provide that sealed proposals would
be received by the City of Anaheim at the office of the City
Clerk of the City of Anaheim up to the hour of 3:00 o'clock P. M.,
on the 23rd day of July, 1963, for the furnishing of all legal
advertising to be done by the City, required by law to be
published in a newspaper of general circulation, printed and
published within the City of Anaheim, for the year commencing
August 1, 1963 and ending July 31, 1964; and
WHEREAS, the City Clerk of the City of Anaheim did

on the 23rd day of July, 1963, in response to the notice afore-
said inviting sealed proposals, to wit:
NAME
Anaheim Gazette Newspaper
"Anaheim Gazette"
OD Mt
Anaheim Bulletin Publishing
Company "The Bulletin"
PRICE
$.95 per column inch for
first insertion
$.85 per column inch for
each insertion thereafter.
$1.25 per column inch for
the first insertion
$1.00 per column inch for
each subsequent insertion.
AND WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the sealed
proposal submitted by The Bulletin, 232 South Lemon Street, i
Anaheim, California, is the lowest responsible proposal that
best responds in quality, fitness and capacity for the publica-
tion of all legal advertising of the City of Anaheim required
to be published in a newspaper of general circulation, printed
and published inside the City, because of the fact that the only
other bid submitted was the bid of the Anaheim Gazette, said
newspaper qualifying as a newspaper of general circulation, but,
in accordance with the information furnished by each bidder, it
was revealed that the Anaheim Gazette had a paid circulation of
approximately 1,500, with a total circulation of 10,400, as
compared to the paid circulation of The Bulletin of 19,079, and
the City Council finds that in order to serve the spirit of the
legal publication requirements of the applicable statutes re-
quiring legal publications, such publications should be directed
to the widest circulation of its citizens; and the Council
further finds that paid subscribers to a newspaper are more
likely to read said newspaper than the unpaid gratuitous receivers
of said newspaper. The Council further finds that the increased
paid circulation of The Bulletin greatly outweighs the additional
costs of publication as submitted by The Bulletin.
The City Council further finds that said bid of The
Bulletin conforms with the specifications for said advertising
on file in the office of the City Clerk of the City of Anaheim,
as specified in the notice inviting sealed proposals; and that
the person, firm or corporation submitting said proposal is a
responsible person, firm or corporation, and that the proposal of
said above named bidder should be accepted and a contract awarded
to said bidder in accordance therewith.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of
the City of Anaheim that the sealed proposal submitted by The
Bulletin, 232 South Lemon Street, Anaheim, California, for the
furnishing of all legal advertising to be done by the City, re-
quired by law to be published in a newspaper of general circula-
tion, printed and published within the City of Anaheim, for the
year commencing August 1, 1963, and ending July 31, 1964, in
conformity with the specifications on file in the office of the
City Clerk of the City of Anaheim and the notice inviting sealed
proposals be, and the same is hereby accepted, and that a contract
for said legal advertising be, and the same is hereby, awarded to
the said above named bidder.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the said successful bidder
shall be, and it is hereby, required to execute a contract in the
required form with the City of Anaheim upon the terms and conditions
specified in the notice inviting sealed proposals and the proposal
submitted, by said successful bidder, and in accordance with the
specifications on file with the City Clerk of the City of Anaheim
and with the terms, conditions and provisions of this resolution.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Mayor and the City Clerk
of the City of Anaheim be, and they are hereby, authorized and
directed to make, execute and enter into, for and on behalf of
the City of Anaheim, a written contract with said successful
bidder for the furnishing of all legal advertising to be done by
the City, required by law to be published in a newspaper of general
