Redevelopment Agency (SEOPW CRA) approve and adopt the attached Resolution authorizing
the Executive Director to expend up to $50,000 with Holland & Knight, LLP, SEOPW CRA Special
Counsel, for legal fees and costs to provide general legal services for the CRA.
JUSTIFICATION:
In that the SEOPW CRA has occasional need of Special Legal Counsel, as determined by either
the Board of Directors or the CRA General Counsel, to provide legal services to the CRA this
resolution is presented for Board consideration. On June 30, 1998, the SEOPW Board of
Directors selected Holland & Knight under Resolution No. SEOPW/CRA R-98-11 to serve as
Special Counsel on an as -needed basis. Therefore, it is necessary to approve the funding for FY
'05 to cover authorized expenditures.
