The sooner we would start the more time we have to collectively develop options and to make <br />any project or political adjustments. Although complex, your project is a part of a process that <br />will have several activities occurring at different times. There are many steps to the process and <br />some will take more time than others. It is most important to use the time before session to <br />develop the project plan and to develop the strategy to gather the political support to implement <br />that plan. <br />FEES <br />It is proposed that a multiphase contract for government relations consulting serves be <br />developed. These phases are separate and distinct and would require an affirmative action to <br />proceed to the second phase. <br />Phase I <br />This phase would include our help in developing the basic Case Statement and the legislative <br />strategy for securing implementation of the project. The fee for this phase of the initiative would <br />be $20,000. We suggest this phase be initiated as soon as possible and be completed by January <br />31, 2022. The fee for this first phase can be paid in four equal monthly installments of $5,000 <br />each commencing upon the execution of a contract. <br />Phase II <br />Once the decision is made to proceed with the legislative request for a construction grant, we <br />will initiate the scope of work identified in the state activities section of this proposal. For Phase <br />II, we propose a fee of $100,000 for a twenty-four month period commencing on February 1, <br />2022 and ending on January 31, 2024. This fee would be payable at the rate of $4,166.66 per <br />month for 24 months. <br />This fee is for government relations services only and does not include any public relations, local <br />fundraising, construction management or legal services. <br />KEY PERSON RESPONSIBLE <br />Bill Strusinski and Les Heen will be taking the lead on this initiative and will be directly <br />involved in all discussions between the project team, executive branch agencies and members <br />and staff of the legislature.
