V. Conflict of Interest <br /> A. Indicate whether you or your law firm represent, or have represented, any <br /> client which representation may conflict with your ability to serve as City <br /> Attorney. <br /> We represent no client which would conflict with our ability to serve as City <br /> Attorney. We do represent Amoco Oil Company on an on -going basis with respect to <br /> zoning and land use matters in the metropolitan area. If any potential conflict arose, we <br /> would not represent Amoco in its dealings with the City. <br /> B. Do you currently represent any real estate developers? <br /> We currently represent several real estate developers; however, we are aware of <br /> no plans for any proposed developments in the City of Falcon Heights. Again, if any <br /> potential conflict arose, we would represent the City in such matter. <br /> C. Do you currently represent any other local units of government having <br /> jurisdiction within, or contiguous to the City of Falcon Heights? <br /> No. <br /> D. What procedures does your firm utilize to identify and resolve conflicts of <br /> interest? <br /> The firm has extremely efficient, mandatory procedures for the identification of <br /> conflicts of interest prior to taking on new matters. Before any new matter is taken on, <br /> a conflict of interest form is circulated to all attorneys in the firm and the firm <br /> undertakes a computerized conflict review covering all active matters. This ensures <br /> potential conflicts of interest are fully identified and resolved prior to commencing new <br /> representation. The firm prides itself on having the highest of ethical standards and is <br /> meticulous in its adherence to the Minnesota Rules of Professional Conduct. <br /> VI. Contract Ethics <br /> The firm will comply with all ethical considerations raised in the RFP. In <br /> particular, the firm hereby certifies that it will not discriminate under the contract for <br /> legal services with the City against any person in accordance with federal, state or local <br /> regulation. <br /> PHB \MKTG \FALCON.RSP 16 <br />
