CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: NO
SUBJECT: Authorize the Execution of Professional Services Agreement in an Amount Not to Exceed
$59,616.00 with Patrick A Svacina d/b/a PAS Communications, for Consulting Services
Related to State and Federal Legislative and Administrative Issues
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract in the
amount of $59,616.00 with Patrick A Svacina, d/b/a PAS Communications, for consulting services
and as a legislative liaison for state and federal legislative and administrative issues. The term of the
contract will be from October 1, 2010 to September 30, 2011 with an option to renew for one-year
under the same terms and conditions.
DISCUSSION:
On October 6, 2009, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a contract with Patrick
A Svacina, d/b/a PAS Communications, (Svacina) for services as a legislative liaison for state and
federal legislative and administrative issues. The current contract with Patrick A Svacina is set to
expire September 30, 2010.
There is a continuing need to retain the services of Patrick A. Svacina because it is necessary that
the City be properly informed on matters pertaining to the state and federal legislative and
administrative issues that will be important as the City of Fort Worth begins preparations for the 2011
Legislative Session.
This Agreement will ensure the City is informed on state issues in preparation for legislative hearings
and in the formulation of public positions. It is advisable that the City obtain professional
representation to assist in defining and crafting appropriate verbal and/or written messages relative to
those issues.
The term of the proposed contract with Patrick A Svacina is from October 1, 2010, to September 30,
2011. The City shall have an option to renew the agreement for an additional one year term under
the same terms unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties. The proposed contract requires the
City to compensate Patrick A. Svacina at a rate of $4,968.00 per month which represents an agreed
reduction of 10 percent from the monthly retainer under the previous contract.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Financial Management Services Director certifies that upon approval of the above
recommendation and adoption of the proposed Fiscal Year 2011 Budget, funds will be available in
the Fiscal Year 2011 Budget as appropriated of the General Fund.
