As such, there is a need for <br />flexibility and to use Tripepi Smith on an ad hoc basis as needed. <br />Tripepi Smith recognizes that, if the City does a larger volume of work with Tripepi Smith, then it <br />should experience a reduction in hourly rate fees. As such, for any work that Tripepi Smith does in a <br />given month over $4,000, Tripepi Smith will discount that work by 15%. For example, if we bill <br />$6,000 for the month, the invoice will be discounted by $300. Time at Tripepi Smith is billed in 15 - <br />minute increments– i.e. we invoice our time in the following examples: 1.25, 0.75, 4.0 or 6.5 hours. <br />Based upon our work in February and March with the City and anticipating a deeper, routine and <br />more proactive engagement going forward, the City should estimate $7,250 a month in costs for the <br />ad hoc work with Tripepi Smith. <br />12 <br />25B-28 <br />
