Conflict of Interest and Litigation Statements <br />Conflict of Interest Statement <br />Prior to proposing on or agreeing to any engagement, we perform a detailed query of our <br />business intelligence system to determine whether there are any potential conflicts of interest. <br />This is a multilayered inquiry based on client, client type, scope of work, and geographic <br />coverage. HMA performed a conflict check for this engagement, and did not identify any <br />conflicts with this work. Should a potential conflict be identified in the future, we will take the <br />appropriate steps to address and manage it. <br />HMA takes the responsibility of avoiding conflicts of interest very seriously. HMA often serves <br />multiple clients within a certain industry or market, including those with potentially opposing <br />interests, and HMA’s relationship with the city will not be an exclusive relationship. In all such <br />situations, HMA is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of each client’s information and <br />ensuring that your interests, proprietary and otherwise, are protected. To that end, HMA strictly <br />adheres to our Policy and Guidelines Related to Conflicts of Interest and Proprietary <br />Information, which contains nondisclosure procedures (such as firewall protocols and other <br />safeguards) to maintain each client’s confidential information and ensure your interests are <br />protected. <br />Litigation Statement <br />HMA does not have any significant prior or ongoing contract failures or any civil or criminal <br />litigation or investigation pending that involves HMA or in which HMA has been judged guilty or <br />liable. <br /> <br />EXHIBIT 1
