At or prior to its first regular meeting in May of each year, the Council, after investigating the circulation, rates, quality of printing, deliveries and responsibility of available newspapers, and after receiving bids, shall designate some newspaper of general circulation which is qualified to publish legal notices under the laws of the State of Michigan as the official newspaper of the City for the next twelve months. All notices, ordinances and other records required by the provisions of this Charter to be published, shall be published in said official newspaper in the manner and form in this Charter provided; provided, however, that the Council may order additional publications of any such notice, ordinance or other record in other newspapers, or in any financial or trade paper, journal or magazine. If, at any time, no newspaper has been designated as the official newspaper of the City, or in case the newspaper designated ceases regular publication or is not giving satisfactory service, the Council shall order the publication of such notices, proceedings, ordinances or other records, as are required to be published, in some other newspaper printed in the English language and circulated in the City; provided, however, that the City shall not be without an official newspaper more than thirty days.
