Settlement would not be concluded.
6. IMPACT ON STAFFING~ BUDGETS~ FACILITIES~ EQUIPMENT OR OTHER RESOURCES:
New City Attorney to be hired, a funded position. Settlement provides for Special Counsel to be part-time
subsequent to March 31, 2001. An mended contract and funding for the part-time position will follow at a later
date. See Budget Adjustment 2000-3 for funding of the November 2000 contract with Lane Powell Spears
Lubersky and for the release of liability agreement with Glenna Malanca in the amount of $20,895. The proposed
settlement reduces future litigation expenses and contemplates dismissal of the City Council Complaint for
Declaratory Action.
