This contract awards Snohomish County the right to publish its statutory legal notices in a county‑wide newspaper for a one‑year period. The County requires precise print specifications, certified circulation, and timely delivery of affidavits of publication. Bidders must submit unit‑price rates for single‑ and double‑column inches, both for one‑time and subsequent notices, and provide a prompt‑pay discount that still allows at least 20 days for payment. The awardee, The Daily Herald, will be responsible for producing the ads, distributing the newspaper across Snohomish and adjacent counties, and supplying original affidavits and tear‑sheet documentation after each notice runs.
• Scope: Full‑page legal‑notice advertising in a newspaper that meets the County’s circulation and printing standards.

• Performance: Contract runs July 1 2020 – June 30 2021; ads must be received at least two days before the desired edition (with specific day‑of‑week exceptions).
• Compliance: Certified circulation (≥ 23,000 copies), affidavits within 14 days (or 48 hours on request), and electronic tear‑sheet notifications within 24 hours.
