ITEM:

Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding approval of the Independent Contractor Agreement with Velez Consulting Services.  (Kay Marion Macuil, City Attorney)

SUMMARY:

At the City Council meeting of October 27, 2022, City Council named Ralph Velez to be the Interim City Manager and directed the City Attorney to prepare a contract.  Mr. Velez already has a consulting contract with the city.  The agreement for Council's consideration now is structured as an addendum to the consultant contract.   The addendum makes it clear that work under this addendum and the consulting contract is concurrent. This prevents any possibility of double billing under both contracts.  The addendum ends on December 14, 2022. The city pays a flat fee paid over two-week installments.  There is a provision for an extension if City Council desires to continue the arrangement.  The addendum preserves the City Code provisions listing the City Manager's duties and that the City Manager serves at the pleasure of the City Council.  The provisions for notice and hearing in the event of termination are waived.  The addendum can be terminated without terminating the underlying consulting contract. 
 

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

I MOVE TO APPROVE THE ADDENDUM TO THE  INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT WITH VELEZ CONSULTING SERVICES.
