I RECOMMENDED ACTION: By minute motion approve the dissolution of Carlsbad Community Education, Inc. ITEM EXPLANATION: In December 1982, the City Council directed staff to proceed with the formation of a non-profit corporation to be responsible for the mailing of the quarterly City newsletter and the periodic Parks and Recreation bulletins. The principal reason for forming the corporation was to take advantage of reduced postage rates available to nonprofit corporations. In 1983 and 1984, the City staff, acting as the board of directors for CCEI, applied to the post office for permission to mail the City news- letter at the nonprofit rate. on the basis that the Carlsbad Report did not qualify as educational material. The post officed denied the City's request Since the post office has refused to grant nonprofit mailing privileges to CCEI, the City continues to pay the regular bulk rate for postage for each newsletter mailing. It is the opinion of the Board that CCEI is serving no useful purpose if the City cannot take advantage of the reduced postage rates. There appears to be no other purpose for continuing to maintain the existence of CCEI. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact of dissolving CCEI will be minor. The City is neither receiving a fiscal benefit nor required to pay major costs due to having the corporation in existence.
