Bob: The scope in the title refers, and is intended to refer, to the specific services outlined in the title. The fee the
Consultant may charge for these services should not exceed the $125,000 number, but can be less.
Reimburseables are not considered part of the "fee" and are typically separate both in the agreement and in how
we account for them. They are essentially passed through costs and not part of the fee.
For this reason, I think we should execute the Agreement as presented with the $125,000 for the fee and an
allowance for $5,000 of reimbursables separate from the fee. I believe what you have is consistent with
Commission Action. Thanks. Tim

FYI -- The agreement to be executed is for $125,000 plus any additional $5,000 for reimbursable/incidentals.
The Commission action, see below, authorized execution in an amount not-to-exceed $125,000.
In a conversation with Raul a day or two ago, I was told that the agreement can not exceed the $125,000.
Please advise how you want to proceed.
FYI -twill be leaving for the Commission Retreat at 9:15 am today and will be gone all day. If you want the
agreement signed today, please advise on how to proceed before 9 am.
Thanks
