TOURIST DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 23, 2016
TO: Tourist Development Council
FROM: Ed Schroeder, Tourist Development Department Director
SUBJECT: Life’s A Beach Contract Amendment No.2
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval of Amendment No.2 to Life’s A Beach Publications
contract C14-2195-TDD for the Emerald Coast Visitor’s Guide.
BACKGROUND: Under the terms of the contract, the annual visitor guide and flyer inserts are to be
provided no later than November 30 of each year. As a result of a surplus of approximately 40,000 guides
remaining back in November 2015, the Tourist Development Department determined immediate delivery
of the 2016 guides was not necessary. Furthermore, the vendor and County entered into Amendment No.1
in November 2015 for a modification of the terms of the deliverables, including a reduction in the number
of guides required. Though not expressly stated in Amendment No.1, the changes implemented there
contemplated that there would be a delay in the delivery of the visitor guides as a result of the contract
amendment. Because the contract terms set forth specifically that the 2016 visitor guides were to be
provided no later than November 30, 2015 and they were not actually delivered until April 2016 at the
direction of the Tourist Development Department, the contract needs to be amended to reflect a
modification to the scope of services.
Pursuant to section E.200 of the TDD Manual, the Council shall review and provide a recommendation
for all proposed contracts requiring Board approval.
OPTIONS: Approve or Deny
RECOMMENDATION TO BCC: Approve Amendment No.2 to Life’s A Beach Publications contract
C14-2195-TDD for the Emerald Coast Visitor’s Guide.
