Please let me know if you have questions. Very truly yours, uCTRuF, WILLIAMS & SORE.NSEN, LLP s 1j"'j C%.L'� April Van Wye Chief Administrative Officer Burke, Williams & Sorensen City Attorney Services AGREEMENT #4557 Mo7152, 9-4-02 PALM SPRINGS FEE AGREEMENT This FEE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into by and between the law firm of BURKE, WILLIAMS & SORENSEN, LLP, ("BWS") and the CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, a municipal corporation ("City"). The term "City" shall also include the PALM SPRINGS COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, the PALM SPRINGS HOUSING AUTHORITY, and all boards, commissions, and other bodies of City. 1. SCOPE OF WORK AND DUTIES. City Council hereby appoints David J. Aleshire as the City Attorney, and hires Burke, Williams & Sorensen as its City Attorney, to render such legal services as are customarily rendered by a City Attorney, including attending meetings of the City Council, Redevelopment Agency, Housing Authority, Planning Commission, and other boards and bodies of City, and its affiliated agencies, as directed by the City. Representation shall include, but not necessarily be limited to, reviewing ordinances and resolutions, reviewing city contracts, recommending, reviewing and overseeing the hiring and supervising of any and all other attorneys employed by City to perform legal work on any litigation or other matter, consulting with or advising City staff on legal issues which arise within their areas of operation, and generally advising the City Council and City staff concerning all legal affairs of City. With respect to pending mailers handled by attorneys previously or otherwise employed by City, Burke, Williams & Sorensen shall become responsible for and proceed to represent City in such matters once the same are identified by the City Council or City Manager and all files have been transferred to Burke, Williams & Sorensen. Burke, Williams & Sorensen, as a fiill-service law firm, is prepared to, and will, provide representation to City in all of its legal affairs, including, but not limited to, municipal law, land use, enviromnental, toxics, mining, water, tort defense, personnel, labor representation, code enforcement, criminal prosecution, redevelopment, housing, cable television, finance, franchising, contracts, enterprise and other matters, except where conflicts exist or where the City Council may otherwise direct. The City Attorney shall represent City in initiating and defending all litigation unless otherwise directed by the City Council. All of these duties shall be performed, as directed by the City Council, and the City Attorney will keep City informed as to the progress and status of all pending matters. Finally, the City Attorney is expected to manage, control and oversee the delivery of legal services in a competent, professional, and cost-effective manner. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, any legal services can only be authorized by the City Council or City Manager. 2. CITY DUTIES. City agrees to provide such information, assistance, cooperation, and access to books, records, and other information, as is necessary for Burke, Williams & Sorensen to effectively render its professional services under this Agreement. To the extent City desires services to be rendered on site, City, at City's expense, will make available sufficient office H 14 Aw space, furniture, telephones, computers, facsimile machines, and secretarial support, as approved by the City Manager, necessary therefor. City further agrees to abide by this Agreement, and to timely pay Burke, Williams & Sorensen's hills for fees, costs, and expenses. In addition, City understands that the fee structure herein represents a blending of rates, with certain services offered at discounted rates, on the assumption that, due to the volume of work, other services will be rendered at higher rates. Therefore, insofar as possible, it is the intent of the parties hereto that all matters of City requiring the rendition of legal services be performed by Burke, Williams & Sorensen. However, nothing in this Section, or any other part of this Agreement, shall be construed in any manner as limiting the ultimate and absolute discretion of the City Council, at any time, to assign or reassign legal matters of City from or to Burke, Williams & Sorensen. 3. LEGAL FEES, BILLING PRACTICES, AND PERSONNEL. Burke, Williams & Sorensen's fees will be charged on an hourly basis for all time actually expended, and such fees are generally billed monthly with payment due within thirty (30) days after the date of the bill. In addition to David J. Aleshire acting as City Attorney, Burke, Williams & Sorensen will provide the following additional attorneys to render the predominate legal services hereunder: Eric Dunn: Deputy City Attorney/Planning, Land Use, General Fred Galante: Assistant City Attorney/Planning, Land Use Dawn Ioneywell: Deputy City Attorney/General Robert Messinger: Deputy City Attorney/Finance Colin Tanner: Deputy City Attorney/Personnel Anthony Taylor: Deputy City Attorney/General, Police William W. Wynder: Deputy City Attorney/Personnel Burke, Williams & Sorensen will exercise its discretion to utilize whichever attorney(s) (and staff) it determines to be best suited to its rendition of legal services under this Agreement, consistent with the competent and efficient rendering of legal services, and with a view toward rendering such services in an economically efficient manner. The compensation schedules are set forth in Exhibits "A" and "B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Blended rates are computed based upon the hours of service irrespective of the rate of the attorney. Blended rates are also shown for legal assistants. In general, the arrangement is that there is a base amount of hours which are significantly discounted and referred to as the general retainer. This includes general services, 3 attending public meetings, preparing ordinances and resolutions, giving general advice to City departments. A higher blended rate is charged after the retainer hours are exceeded. Special services, including a broad range of categories (litigation, personnel, labor, redevelopment, housing, toxics, refuse, cable, enterprise, etc.) are billed at a higher blended rate. Public finance matters are charged on a contingent basis based upon the size of the matter. The specific terms are set forth in the exhibits. The foregoing arrangement would remain in effect for at least Fiscal Years 2002- 2003 and 2003-2004. However, the hourly rates of the attorneys at Burke, Williams & Sorensen are reviewed annually and, when appropriate, adjusted to reflect increases in expertise as well as other appropriate factors. Such increases are made on an annual basis, effective as of the beginning of each calendar year. While the hourly rates for services rendered by individual Burke, Williams & Sorensen attorneys may be adjusted as set forth herein, the "blended rates" established in this Agreement shall not be adjusted except as provided here, and only upon the approval of the City Council. 4. COSTS AND OTHER CHARGES. Burke, Williams & Sorensen may incur various costs and expenses in rendering the legal services required by this Agreement. These costs and expenses are set forth in more detail in Exhibit "B" attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference. City agrees to reimburse Burke, Williams & Sorensen for these costs and expenses in addition to the hourly fees for legal services. Burke, Williams & Sorensen may determine it necessary or appropriate to use one or more outside investigators, consultants, or experts in rendering the legal services required (particularly if a matter goes into litigation). City will be responsible for paying such fees and charges. Burke, Williams & Sorensen will not, however, retain the services of any outside investigators, consultants, or experts without the prior agreement of City. Burke, Williams & Sorensen will select any investigators, consultants, or experts to be hired only after consultation with City. The cost and expenses referred to herein include certain travel expenses; transportation, meals, and lodging; when incurred on behalf of the client. Generally, these will only be charged when outside of the area, and only with the prior agreement of City. Finally, periodically, when on-site, Burke, Williams & Sorensen personnel may be required to make local and long-distance telephone calls, or make photocopies, or incur other expenses on behalf of the City as well as other clients. Burke, Williams & Sorensen will not be charged for such expenses and, in exchange, will not charge the City for calls made from our office or other locations to the City. 5. STATEMENTS. Burke, Williams & Sorensen shall render to City a statement for fees, costs, and expenses incurred on a periodic basis (generally monthly). Such statement(s) shall indicate the 194611 basis of the fees, including the hours worked, the hourly rate(s), and a brief description of the work performed. 6.

Therefore, Burke, Williams & Sorensen shall not contract with any other person or entity to perform, in whole or in part, the legal services required under this Agreement without the written approval of City. In addition, neither this Agreement, nor any interest herein, may be transferred, assigned, conveyed, hypothecated, or encumbered voluntarily, or by operation of law, whether for the benefit of creditors, or otherwise, without the prior written approval of City. 7.

Neither City, nor any of its employees, shall have any control over the manner, mode, or means by which Burke, Williams & Sorensen, its agents or employees, render the legal services required under this Agreement, except as otherwise set forth. City shall have no voice in the selection, discharge, supervision or control of Burke, Williams & Sorensen's employees, servants, representatives, or agents, or in fixing their number, compensation, or hours of service. 8.
