RE: Professional Services Proposal
Dear Karen:
As requested, enclosed is our Professional Services Proposal for on-going codification services to the Los
Altos Hills Municipal Code. The proposal describes in detail:
• Republication of the current code.
• Comprehensive Legal Review.
• On-going Supplement Service.
• Electronic Publishing & Internet Service.
• Optional services such as CodeAlert, Binders and Tabbed Divider Pages.
REPUBLICATION including updating the code through ordinance 511:
Here is the cost to republishing the code in our one or two -column page style. Page samples are attached
at the back of the proposal. Both of these page styles have more words per page than your current page
style. The current code is about 600 pages, printed on one side of the sheet. Republished in either of
these two page styles will reduce your code to approximately 400 pages. Republication includes creation
of a new -index, reformatting, proofreading and printing 10 copies. The estimated cost, assuming the code
is 400 pages, including 200 supplement pages would be:
400 republished pages @ $11.00 per page (10 copies) ...................................................... $4,400.00
200 supplement pages @ $7.00 per page ........................................................................... $1,400.00

Future supplements to the republished code would be $18.00 per page for 10 printed copies.
I have also enclosed a list of suggested editorial and stylistic changes. These suggestions were prepared
by, Dave Holbein, our Managing Editor. If requested, we can implement these changes during the
republication process. We believe these changes will improve the look and usability of the code.
If there is any part of this proposal that you would like to see changed or amended, I am sure we can
come to a mutually satisfactory agreement.
All we need to get started is one signed copy of the enclosed proposal. Our staff will ensure a seamless
transition.
I will be out of the office next week, May 19-23, however if you have questions please call Dave.
Otherwise, I will call you the week of May 27 to make sure you received this information and answer any
questions.
I look forward to working with you and the City of Los Altos Hills and will work hard to ensure your
complete satisfaction.
Sincerely,
NL
