PETITION TO WITHHOLD CITY ATTORNEYS' CONTRACT
We as concerned Citizens of Lake Elsinore, do hereby petition
the City Council, to open up to bid the City Attorney's
contract. The City of Lake Elsinore has continually contracted
with one legal firm since 1998 without competitive bid.
In 2005 a Grand Jury recommended the city open the bidding,
for selecting a City Attorney. The city declined to adhere to the
Grand Jury's recommendation.
Our current City Attorney's fees are exceeding 600K/year,
and are too costly to the Citizens of Lake Elsinore. The City
Attorney has not lived up to her contractual duties and
continues to bill the city in arrears. Thus, making it impossible
to ascertain the true cost in legal fees.
We the Citizens of Lake Elsinore, having signed this petition
strongly urge all Council members to not renew the City
Attorney's contract until bidding has opened up to other law
firms with at least three respectable bids. We believe this
would result in monetary savings to the city, as well as to the
taxpayers of Lake Elsinore.

Citizens of Lake Elsinore's Petition to Withhold City Attorney's Contract
We the concerned Citizens of Lake Elsinore, do hereby petition the City Council, to open the bid for the City Attorney's contract:
As of March 2011, the City of Lake Elsinore has contracted with the same legal firm since 1998, without the competitive bid
process. In 2005, a Grand Jury recommended the city open the bidding for selecting a City Attorney. Against this
recommendation the City Council declined to adhere to the Grand Jury.
Our current City Attorney, receives approximately $600,000.00 in legal fees. This law firm is continually billing the city in arrears
thus costing the city late fees of nearly eight months. This exemplifies how our City Attorney has not complied with their
contractual duties.
We the Citizens of Lake Elsinore, having signed this petition, strongly urge all Council members to not renew the City Attorney's
contract until bidding has opened up to other law firms with at least three respectable bids_ We believe this would result
in monetary savings to the city, as well as the taxpayers of Lake Elsinore.
