Synopsis of Previous Council Action: On April 14, 2014, the City of San Bernardino acting as the Successor Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency (Successor Agency) entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Mr. James P. Morris, to assist with the wind down of the former Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino in an amount of$24,999. Background: The Successor Agency acquired the services of Mr. Morris to assist the Executive Director in matters related with the wind down of the former Redevelopment Agency. Mr. Morris has been working closely with Urban Futures, Inc, to ensure that the Successor Agency is on track in meeting the requirements of the Dissolution Act. As the Successor Agency's primary contact with the Department of Finance (DOF), Mr. Morris' knowledge and history of the former Redevelopment Agency has been effective in addressing issues relating to the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and the Due Diligence Reports (DDRs). In addition to the DOF, Mr. Morris will work closely with the Oversight Board, the State Controller's Office (SCO), and the County Auditor-Controller(CAC). Due to the complex nature of the Agency, it is important to the Successor Agency that Mr. Morris work directly with the DOF and Successor Agency staff through the wind down process; therefore, staff is recommending that the City, approve and authorize a Professional Services Agreement with Mr. Morris the term beginning July 1, 2014 through December 30, 2014.
