copies of the entire code, or portions thereof, may be ordered by the Municipality as they are
needed.
1.4. Binders. BPC will offers customized, heavy duty, expandable post binders, or 3-ring binders,
in any quantity the city needs. Binders are available in a selection of colors and will be
imprinted on the cover and spine with an appropriate title. The Municipality may also add a
seal, logo or other artwork to the binder covers.
1.5. Reprints. Additional copies of individual code titles such as zoning and traffic are available
at an extra cost. They may be ordered with printed paper covers or separate binders.
2. PROOFREADING. BPC will proofread the entire code for accuracy. BPC is responsible for the
typographical correctness of the code. Any errors attributable to BPC will be corrected at no charge to
the Municipality.
3. COMPUTERIZED COPY OF CODE. If desired, BPC can provide the Municipality with a copy of the
code on computer diskette for convenient, on-line access. Please see Part II, Optional Services.
4. SALE OF CODES. The Municipality has exclusive rights to sell copies of the completed codes and
looseleaf supplements.
5. SUPPLEMENT SERVICES. BPC will provide ongoing updates for the Municipality, on a regular
schedule, as directed by the Municipality. Ordinances will be forwarded to BPC as they are adopted.
Prior to beginning a regularly scheduled supplement, BPC will contact the Municipality to confirm that
BPC has received all the necessary ordinances. BPC's editors will insure that the following steps are
completed.
5.1. Editing. BPC will organize the new ordinances by subject and will insert all amendments into
their proper places in the code text. Provisions that have been repealed will be deleted from
the code text.
5.2. Update Related Parts. All history notes, tables, cross-references and index entries will be
updated to reflect the new material. Tables showing the disposition of each municipal
ordinance shall be prepared and included in the code volume. Repealed and omitted special
ordinances shall be so noted.
5.3. Statutory Reference Table. BPC shall include a list of state laws which pertain to, or affect,
the Municipality's local Code provisions.
5.4. Publish Supplement Pages. The revised pages will be retypeset to match the style and format
of the code.
5.5. Insertion Guide. Each supplement will include a page with instructions for inserting the new
pages and removing obsolete ones.
5.6. Updating Computerized Copy. If requested, BPC will provide updated copies of the code
on diskette, along with each printed supplement. Please see Part II, Optional Services for
descriptions of computer format options.
5.7. Frequency. The Municipality may choose to supplement the code quarterly, semi-annually,
annually, or on an "as-needed" basis. The Municipality may change the supplement interval
at any time. Frequency of supplementation does not affect the supplement rate.
5.8. Termination. The Municipality may terminate the supplement service by canceling in writing
at least 60 days prior to the editorial cut off date for any regularly scheduled supplement.
6. SAMPLE ORDINANCE SERVICE. BPC will provide sample ordinance language wherever possible
to assist with the drafting of new and amendatory legislation. This service is offered at no charge to BPC
customers and is available in hard copy or on disk.

PART II - OPTIONAL SERVICES
7. COMPUTERIZED COPY OF CODE. The Municipality may order a copy of the code on diskette(s)
or CD-ROM provided in the Municipality's choice of Rich Text Files (RTF) compatible with most word
processing programs such as MS Word or WordPerfect for Windows, ASCII text or WordPerfect 5.1
(DOS). Please indicate the desired format in Part III, Prices and Payment Terms.
8. CODEMASTER SOFTWARE. BPC offers CodeMaster, an exclusive software designed to assist in
managing municipal records such as your code, council minutes,` resolutions, etc. CodeMaster provides
powerful search and retrieval, direct editing (importing/exporting text), the ability to directly draft code
amendments, and elimination of manual indexing. Available for both stand-alone PC's and for networks,
CodeMaster includes a twelve-month maintenance agreement, telephone and electronic support,
CodeMaster newsletter, all upgrades and new releases. Two-day and three-day training packages are also
available.
9. CODEONLINE. BPC offers CodeOnline, a single-source, single-CD multi platform distribution solution.
The single-CD will include the code formatted in three file types:
9.1. Folio VIEWS/Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). The Folio infobase will
contain PDF files appearing as underlined hypertext links. The advantage of PDF files is that
they preserve the appearance of the printed document. This would include portions of the code
which are difficult to convert or maintain in electronic format such as graphs, diagrams, charts
or tables.
9.2. HTML. The HTML version of the code may be viewed directly from the CD with your web
browser. The files may be published on a network, including the Internet. This version will
also contain PDF files as described above.
9.3. Word processing files. The files may be opened using nearly any Windows word processor.
10. INTERNET OPTIONS. BPC provides options for Internet Access for your Municipal Code.
10.1. BPC WebSite. On the BPC WebSite, the code can be accessed at our Internet address and
linked to the Municipality's homepage. Each time the printed code is supplemented, BPC will
update the Internet copy. The cost is based on a one-time set-up fee, an annual storage fee, and
the cost to format the code. Supplement formatting costs are additional. For costs, please see
Part III, Prices and Payment Terms. BPC's WebSite uses standard HTML files, arranged in a
document tree with hypertext Tables of Contents. Each section is contained in a separate
HTML file. These files can also be used on your Local Area Network using any standard web
browser (the file server must support long filenames).
10.2. Municipality's Website. If the Municipality prefers to post the code on its website, BPC can
provide the code in HTML files for use with any standard web browser (not including a search
engine.) Additional formatting will be necessary, depending on the search engine or web
browser. HTML files can also be used on a Local Area Network. When the code is
supplemented, BPC can provide HTML files to update the Internet copy. Please see Part III,
Prices and Payment Terms.
