This proposed study will focus on land use planning, economic development, and modeling for the future growth of the sub -region.

City Manager Bill Eisen stated this is an extension of the current contract with the City's financial advisor RBC Capital Markets. The Resolution would extend the contract for 5 years with the stipulation that a bid process will be conducted at the end of the fourth year. Councilmember Harris stated she wanted to verify that the extension of this agreement was in compliance with the City's policy which states "the contract with the Financial Advisor shall be a maximum of ten (10) years, however with a termination clause, at the discretion of the City. A contract may be renewed after a competition process in which the Council determines that continuation with the incumbent firm is in the best interest of the City." She stated it would be better for the City to extend the contract for four years due to the fact that the bid process may not allow the fifth year. This would prevent the City from violating its contract and policy.
