<br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br /> <br /> <br />REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br /> <br />NOVEMBER 20, 2006 <br />TITLE: <br /> <br />t2~) /) <br />, /~/,/) <br />4t ' ~,WA- <br />CITY MANAGER <br /> <br />APPROVED <br /> <br />D As Recommended <br />D As Amended <br />D Ordinance on 1st Reading <br />o Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br />D Implementing Resolution <br />o Set Public Hearing For <br /> <br />AMENDMENT TO LEGAL SERVICES <br />WITH KINKLE,RODIGER & SPRIGGS <br />(A-2004-005) <br /> <br />CONTINUED TO <br /> <br />FILE NUMBER A-2004-005 <br /> <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br /> <br />Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and <br />Clerk of the Council to execute an amendment to the Legal Services <br />Agreement with Kinkle, Rodiger & Spriggs, a professional corporation, to <br />increase the hourly fee for services from $155 to $175. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />The City Attorney's Office provides legal services to the City, its <br />officials and employees, primarily through staff attorneys. However, it <br />is sometimes necessary to retain outside counsel for specialized fields <br />of practice and cases that have extraordinary staffing requirements. <br />Kinkle, Rodiger & Spriggs, has been representing the City since 1976. <br /> <br />Kinkle, Rodiger & Spriggs, has increased its billing rate to $175.00 per <br />hour, plus reimbursable costs for expenses such as travel, photocopying, <br />and facsimile transmissions. The previous billing rate of $155.00 per <br />hour has not been increased since January 2004. <br /> <br />In surveying the limited market for these services, the City Attorney <br />staff found the rate for services to be competitive given the complexity <br />of the litigation and the expertise possessed by the attorneys at <br />Kinkle, Rodiger & Spriggs. <br /> <br />25U-1 <br />
