INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM

FROM: David Cline, City Administrator
BY: Cheryl Thompson, Executive Assistant
DATE: November 7, 2022
SUBJECT: Contract for Prosecution Services
ISSUE
The current contract for Prosecution Services provided by the Walls Law Firm expires
December 31, 2022. Attached is a proposed contract amendment extending the term of the
contract to June 30, 2023.
BACKGROUND
The City contracts the Walls Law Firm for Prosecution Services. The term for the current
contract expires December 31, 2022. One of the firm members may be appointed to a judicial
position with King County effective January, 2023, which will impact who is appointed as the
lead prosecuting attorney for the City of Tukwila. To ensure continuity of service the City is
extending the term of the contract through June 30, 2023. This will allow time for the City and
the firm to address any impacts to service from the pending judicial appointment.
DISCUSSION
Compensation will continue at $12,500 per month. As a six-month extension equates to
$75,000 in compensation, we are bringing the amendment before Council for approval.
RECOMMENDATION
The Committee is being asked to move this contract amendment forward to the November
21, 2022 consent agenda.
