ACTION:
By
The City Council has previously received a copy of the request from
the City Attorney for a rate increase to be effective July 1, 1992.
The rates were last increased in July of 1989. The regular rate
for City Attorney is proposed to increase from $125 to $135 per
hour, an increase of 8 %. Other rates are proposed to increase
between 5.5% and 15 %. This Addendum to the Agreement will also
specify the charge rate for allowed travel time and list partners
by years admitted to the bar rather than by name.
Pursuant to Section 3.C. of the Agreement, the City Council has 45
days to approve or reject the proposed increase. This action
should be taken by June 3, 1992. The Budget and Finance Committee
has considered the proposal. The Committee is sensitive to cost
increases, especially during the current economic circumstances,
however it has been three years since the last rate adjustment and
the increases are generally at or below the cost of living
increases during this same period. The Committee recommends
acceptance of the rate increases effective July 1, 1992 and
approval of the First Addendum to the Agreement.
The current and proposed increases for Partners, Associates and
Paralegal services is as follows:
