restructuring the lease agreements between the County and the Retirement
Board for the County Administration Building and the Pleasant Hill County
Building.
The firm of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe has presented a letter agreement
indicating the necessary legal work for the validation actions will not
exceed $21 , 000, and it is recommended that the County Administrator be
authorized to execute the letter agreement and the Auditor-Controller be
authorized to pay up to $21 , 000 for the required services.
