SUBJECT: Agreement Between Weld C my D partment of Social Services and
the Weld County Attorney
DATE: December 28, 1993
Enclosed is a revised copy of Exhibit I and II for your review and comment.
The computations have been revised downward to $24,900 from a $32,000 level.
My original $32,000 estimate was based on:
1. previous contractual experience with County Attorney's Office,
excluding Calendar Year 1993
2. my conservative approach of anticipating emergency legal needs during
the 1994 calendar year.
However, I rely on your good judgement that legal costs will not exceed the
$24,900 level.
Also, you requested additional information concerning the dollars not spent
under the 1993 contractual agreement. The source of these dollars are
classified as "Regular Administration." These dollars will be reprogrammed
during our fiscal year (July 1, 1993 through June 30, 1994) for appropriate
administrative usage.
