SUBJECT: Request for Payment of Attorney's Fees

Attached, you will find a statement for services rendered by the
Niblock Law Firm concerning the incinerator disengagement. This
statement is for $21,033.21.
This statement represents the third set of billings relative to the
City's defense in its current lawsuit with Mr. Robson. As you are
aware, the estimated figure to the Board was $500,000 for
attorney's fees to defend the City in this lawsuit if we are
successful on the first level. We have previously paid the Niblock
Law Firm $52,098.18 for defending the City. We have also paid
McDermott, Will and Emery $85,329.94. I have also requested from
McDermott, Will and Emery a bill for the month of November.
Mr. Jerry Rose or I will be glad to get any further information and
answer any questions you may have concerning this issue.
