MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Members of e
FROM: Alejandro Vilarello ity
DATE: June 17, 2002
RE: Proposed
Increased
Commission
CA -16
Me 27NkO2 City Commission Meeting
for Special Counsel to Civil Service Board (J-02-593)
The attached proposed Resolution provides for a compensation increase, in the amount of
$9,000 (from $30,000 to $39,000 annually) for Special Counsel to the Civil Service Board.
Funds for the increase are available from the Fiscal Year 2001-2002 budgeted funds of the Civil
Service Office, Account No. 240101-011.
Special counsel as legal advisor to the Civil Service Board is required because the City
Attorney prosecutes violators of actions in conflict with Civil Service Rules and Regulations, and
therefore, cannot both represent and prosecute cases before the Civil Service Board.
Due to the increase in the cases scheduled before the Civil Service Board, and the
expertise and scope of legal services provided by the Special Counsel, an increase in the
previously approved compensation of $30,000 annually is appropriate. The compensation is
payable as earned during the period of such counsel's employment, and the increased
compensation will be pro -rated effective June 1, 2002. Services provided by Special Counsel
includes any related litigation services required by the Civil Service Board.
