Chuck Whiting <br /> October 14, 1999 <br /> Page 2 of 2 <br /> As a result of implementing these changes, the city should be able to significantly reduce their <br /> overall legal costs for the year 2000 budget as follows: The city will pay a maximum of$36,000 <br /> for retainer legal services. The City will establish an estimated budget for non-retainer legal <br /> services paid by the city on projects that the city anticipates needed during the year 2000. <br /> However, there will, of course, be unexpected matters such as unexpected litigation, which could <br /> affect this non-retainer budget. And finally, all other costs will be reimbursed to the city by third <br /> parties, such as developers, requiring the city attorney services. <br /> In reviewing our files, I realize that we have not had an updated retainer agreement with the city <br /> since the 1997 calendar year. Therefore, I am attaching to this letter a proposed retainer <br /> agreement for the 2000 calendar year that reflects proposals outlined in this letter. If you have <br /> any questions, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting with you and your staff <br /> on October 15. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Robert ong <br /> City Attorney <br /> RCL:jes <br /> Enclosure <br /> JPD-152601 <br /> KG400-1 <br />
