City of Tukwila <br />Allan Ekberg, Mayor <br />INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Ekberg <br />Finance Committee <br />FROM: David Cline, City Administrator <br />BY: Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant <br />DATE: October 19, 2020 <br />SUBJECT: Contract for Prosecution Services <br />BACKGROUND <br />The current contract for Prosecution Services provided by the Walls Law Firm expires <br />December 31, 2020. Attached is a proposed contract for 2021-2022. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The Walls Law Firm has provided prosecution services to the City of Tukwila for several years <br />through a contract with Kenyon Disend. When Kenyon Disend decided to discontinue <br />providing prosecution services the City opted to take the opportunity to go through an <br />RFQ/RFP process and the City has contracted directly with The Walls Law Firm for <br />Prosecution Services since late 2018. <br />In conjunction with the City's efforts to reduce 2021-2022 budget expenditures the proposed <br />contract is $12,500 per month which is $1,000 less per month than the previous contract <br />cycle. The contract also allows for a mid -contract review of compensation to determine if an <br />adjustment in compensation is feasible. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The Committee is being asked to move this contract forward to the consent agenda of the <br />November 16, 2020 City Council Meeting for approval and authorization for execution by the <br />Mayor. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />Draft Contract for Prosecution Services for 2021-2022 <br />13 <br />
