allows the City the unilateral option, at its sole discretion, to renew the agreement automatically
for up to three additional one-year terms. On August 1, 2020, FG Creative merged with CV
Strategies, Inc. Last year Council authorized the first one-year extension of the contract in addition
to assignment of the contract to CV Strategies.
Staff is requesting approval of a second one-year extension of the contract with CV Strategies for
a total amount of $25,000 for FY 2020/21.
