HEARING:
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of a Renewal Agreement in the Amount of $48,034.00 with Charles W.
Evans for Professional Legislative Consulting Services and Representation of the City on
State Issues Before the Texas State Legislature, State Agencies and the Office of the
Governor (NO COUNCIL DISTRICT)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a renewal agreement
in the amount of $48,034.00 with Charles W. Evans for professional legislative consulting services for
the City of Fort Worth and representation of the City before the Texas State Legislature, State
agencies and the Office of the Governor. The term of the contract will be from October 1, 2011 to
September 30, 2012.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth retains outside legislative consulting services in order to maintain resident
expertise regarding the City's relationship with the State Legislature. The role of an outside consultant
is to assist the City in promoting and protecting its legislative interests in Austin. The current contract
with Charles W. Evans (Mr. Evans) for these services will expire on September 30, 2011.
Mr. Evans, a former member of the Texas Legislature, has assisted the City in accomplishing its state
legislative initiatives, as well as, assisting with interim activities of the Legislature when that body is
not in session.
The Agreement requires Mr. Evans to provide advice and counsel regarding state agencies and
commissions, as well as, provide assistance in promoting passage of legislative initiatives for the City
during legislative sessions and the interim sessions. The current contract has an option for the City of
Fort Worth to renew and extend the agreement for one year, with the renewal period beginning
October 1, 2011 and ending on September 30, 2012. The City of Fort Worth is opting to renew the
agreement under the same terms and conditions. The contract requires the City to compensate Mr.
Evans at a rate of $3,919.50 per month and an amount not to exceed $1,000.00 for approved
expenses for the renewal term.
The combined amount of the initial Agreement and the renewal Agreement exceeds the threshold
amount of $50,000.00 for City Council approval, bringing the total contract amount to $96,068.00 for
a two-year period.
