February 23.2004
Meeting
MGR. R/' /Dept.
REQUEST: City Manager requesting the Commission to approve a revised legal fee schedule
with the city's Pension Attorney Jim Linn, of Lewis, Longman & Walker.
PURPOSE: This agenda item is needed for the Commission to consider revised fees of the city
pension attorney.
CONSIDERATIONS:
On August 13,2001 the Commission engaged Jim Linn of Lewis, Longman & Walker to be the
city's pension attorney. At that time Mr. Lewis' fee was $210.00.
On January 9, 2004 we received notice of an increase in fees for Jim Linn from $210.00 to
$280.00.
The great majority of Jim's work was completed with the overhaul of the city's pension
documents. Therefore, the increase would have very little impact on the cost of the pension
system.
FUNDING: No additional funding required.
RECOMMENDA TIONS:
It is recommended that the Commission consider adoption of the pension attorney's revised fee
and provide any direction it deems appropriate.
