Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved increasing attorney Mary A. Renfro's contract from $60,000 to $110,000 total to handle specialized legal work that requires outside expertise. This adds $50,000 to cover additional legal services beyond what was originally planned when her contract was set to run through June 2006. The approval allows the city to continue using Renfro's services for complex legal matters that the city attorney's office cannot handle internally. This was a routine contract amendment that received full council support.
