TITLE

Recommendation to authorize City Manager to execute an agreement with the firm of Brutzkus Gubner in the Bankruptcy matter entitled EHT, US1, INC., et al, Case No. 21-10036-CSS.

 

DISCUSSION

The City Council is requested to authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with the firm of Brutzkus Gubner in a total amount not to exceed $400,000 (including funds already expended), in order that the firm may continue to represent the City's interest in the above-entitled matter. The firm previously had represented the City in connection with the above-entitled matter pursuant to a purchase order, but the total fee amount recently exceeded the maximum amount authorized for purchase orders.

 

FISCAL IMPACT

Payment for these services will be paid by the Economic Development Department.

 

SUGGESTED ACTION

Approve recommendation.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

CHARLES PARKIN

CITY ATTORNEY
