OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY
MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM: Julie O. Bru, City Attorney
DATE: November 19, 2008
RE:
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
Proposed Resolution for December 11, 2008 City Commission Meeting
Compensation to Special Counsel to Civil Service Board
(File No. 08-01340)
The attached proposed Resolution has been prepared for your consideration to
provide compensation, in the total amount of $39,000, for Special Counsel to the
Civil Service Board. Funds are available from the Fiscal Year 2008-2009 budgeted
funds of the Civil Service Office, Account No. 00001.980000.531010.0000.0000.
Special counsel to serve 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.
The compensation has been approved by the user department and is payable as
earned during the period of such counsel's employment. Services provided by
Special Counsel shall include any related litigation services required by the Civil
Service Board.
