Authorizing an Agreement with John R. O'Donnell for Representation at the Federal Level
b
Approval authorizes the Executive Director to enter into an agreement with John R. O'Donnell for a one-year period for $35,000. The contract would be for representation at the Federal level.
Based upon the Water Authority needs and requests at the federal level to support outstanding funding required for the Title XVI funding for water reclamation projects, regional water and wastewater projects, Valley Utilities Project, it is prudent to have direct representation for the Water Authority. Mr. O'Donnell also provides services with federal agencies in Washington, D.C. on behalf of the Water Authority as necessary.
The agreement would be through June 2016. This contract will not exceed a three-year term.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The funding to support this contract is in the FY16 Water Authority budget.
