Ind. Gov't. - "The golden age of Lake County government printing contracts might soon be over"

The ILB has had a number of items on Lake County printing contracts.

"Councilman pushes for no-frills printing contract"
is the headline to a story today in the NWI Times by Bill Dolan:

CROWN POINT | The golden age of Lake County government printing contracts might soon be over if Councilman Larry Blanchard, R-Crown Point, has his wish.

Blanchard urged county officials on Tuesday to adopt a consolidated contract for printing county government envelopes, letterhead, business cards and other government forms.

He said the county could save 10 percent or more on its $490,000 in printing contracts -- including service and maintenance fees -- by consolidating the work for dozens of county offices into one competitive bidding package.

"It would be no-frills. No gold lettering or raised lettering or seals, but the savings would be substantial," he said.
