Amend Employee Relations Litigation and Negotiation
Services Contract and Appropriate Funds from Undesignated Fund Balance
AQMD has incurred significant attorneys’ fees defending an employment
lawsuit. The court recently granted AQMD’s motion for summary judgment,
which will end the case, unless plaintiff appeals. Although most of the
fees will be reimbursed by insurance, it is necessary to amend the
contract with AQMD’s outside counsel, Best, Best & Krieger, to pay those
fees. It is also necessary to appropriate this amount from the
undesignated fund balance. |
