SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The current retainer agreement with White Peterson expires on September 30, 2013. The attached agreement renews the professional relationship for another fiscal year. The amount of the
monthly retainer and the fees for services outside the retainer again remain unchanged from the current agreement and has not changed in the past 5 years.
White Peterson requests a review in April 2014 to evaluate the continuing trend of imbalance between the retainer and the actual hours being worked. There may be a need for an increase
in the FY15 budget, and perhaps an adjustment to what services are inside the retainer.
The FY14 General Fund budget includes $140,000 for legal services. The annual retainer amount is $67,200.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Agreement for City Attorney Services for FY14 and authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement.
