REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br />NOVEMBER 20, 2006 <br />TITLE: <br />AMENDMENT TO LEGAL SERVICES <br />WITH KINKLE,RODIGER & SPRIGGS <br />(A-2004-005) <br />1 <br />CITY MANAGER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />APPROVED <br />^ As Recommended <br />^ As Amended <br />^ Ordinance on 1St Reading <br />^ Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br />^ Implementing Resolution <br />^ Set Public Hearing For_ <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER A-2004-005 <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 />DISCUSSION <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 />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 />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 />25U-1 <br />
