Title
Professional Public Relations Services - Contract Extension
History
In 2019, the Village engaged the services of Reputation Partners for professional public relations counsel and support.
Staff would like to extend the services of Reputation Partners for 2020 to assist with crisis communications and issues-focused public relations counsel and support aimed at achieving the following goals:
• Provide counsel and strategic advice to Village of Orland Park leadership prior to or as crisis situations occur.
• Disseminate information around specific situations to key stakeholders in an accurate and timely manner.
• Maintain a positive reputation for the Village of Orland Park in the south Chicago suburbs and in the Chicagoland area overall.
Financial Impact
Funds for public relations services, in the amount of $48,000, are available in the FY2020
PIO budget.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve retaining professional public relations services with Reputation Partners for a not to exceed amount of $48,000.00 for services thru December 31, 2020.
