RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving Amendment No. 3 to the Professional Services Agreement with Redwood Public Law, LLP.
Body
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Redwood Public Law, LLP has served as the City Attorney for the City since March 2024, with attorneys at the firm representing the City for nearly 30 years.
After a recent review of the Professional Services Agreement between the City of South San Francisco/South San Francisco Successor Agency (City) and Redwood Public Law, LLP., an amendment is recommended.
Amendment No. 3 (attached to the associated resolution as Exhibit A), modifies the amount paid by the City for the range of legal services included in the current Professional Services Agreement and would be effective July 1, 2026. The proposed hourly rate increases are in line with changes in inflation, City costs, and changes in compensation approved for City employees.
CONCLUSION
Approval of this resolution will amend the agreement with Redwood Public Law, LLP for City Attorney services, effective July 1, 2026.
