INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Common Council
FROM: James F. Penman
City Attorney
SUBJECT: 1993 - 1994 BUDGET - LITIGATION COSTS
DATE: 12 July 1993
CC:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The budget you have been presented with does not accurately reflect
the projected expenses for litigation costs for the 1993-1994
fiscal year.
On April 19, 1993, this office transmitted (copies attached) three
alternate budgets to the City Administrator with copies to the
Mayor and Council. The cover memorandum explained that the budget
attached had an artificially imposed low amount for litigation
costs. Two budget alternatives were provided which detail
realistic projected litigation expenditures for 1993-1994. Option
A reflects a realistic budget with a substantial savings over
otherwise realistic costs.
I encourage you to carefully consider the litigation cost
projections for the 1993-1994 budget and to avoid imposing a budget
that was similar to the one imposed in 1992-1993. That budget
failed to take into consideration our actual estimates of the
litigation expenditures for this year. The Mayor and Council have
had to deal, painfully at times, with the unbudgeted litigation
costs that this office warned about during last year' s budget
sessions.
Respectfully Submitted,
James F. Penman

C I T Y OF S A N B E R N A R D I N Q
INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Shauna Clark, City Administrator
FROM: Dennis A. Barlow, Senior Assistant City Attorney
DATE: April 19, 1993
RE: City Attorney Budget
COPY TO: Mayor and Common Council
The attached budget for the City Attorney' s Office, as directed by
the Administration does not take into account the additional costs
which will be required in the 1993/94 fiscal year for outside
counsel due to the significant number of complex cases pending that
will require many hours of intense work over and above the "normal"
case. Nor does it consider at all the new cases anticipated to be
filed during the 1993/94 fiscal year. As such, this budget bears
no relationship to reality and is only an attempt to meet an
artificially imposed amount. Whatever budget amount is adopted by
the Mayor and Council, lawsuits will still be filed, cases will
still go to trial and a defense still must be provided. It would
be more responsible budgeting to provide the amount that is
anticipated than to include an artificially low number to balance
the budget when everyone knows that the numbers will not hold up.
In addition, we have been directed to propose a 5% reduction. If
staff is cut, costs for outside firms or individuals to do the
required work will increase at a much greater rate.
It is anticipated that with the present in-house staff, outside
attorney costs will actually be approximately $653, 624 for fiscal
year 1993/94. If the vacant attorney position is filled for an
approximate cost of $76, 991 ( salary and benefits) , then outside
attorney costs can be reduced by $155, 000 for a real savings of
$78, 209 .
We have, therefore, also prepared two optional budgets for review.
Option A reflects the realistic costs if the vacant Deputy City
Attorney position is filled. Option B provides for keeping the
position vacant and demonstrates the resultant increased costs for
outside counsel .

To Shauna Clark, City Administrator
Date: April 19, 1993
Re City Attorney Budget
The direction we received from the Administration was that we were
not to include the additional $700, 000 allocated by the Mayor and
Council to litigation and outside attorneys for the 1992-93 fiscal
year. However, it is absolutely essential that the Mayor and
Council see these numbers so that a realistic comparison can be
made and an informed decision reached. We have, therefore,
included them with an explanatory footnote.
We find it interesting that this extra amount was not to be
included but the extra amount for salaries was reflected. The
policy does not seem to be consistent in both parts of the budget.
Finally, in order to reach the budget amount determined by the
Administration for this office, we had to make significant cuts in
the amount allocated in previous years. For instance, travel for
the required training for attorneys as well as office supplies were
both cut significantly. Then on that reduced number, we were
directed to proposed an additional 5% reduction. It is for this
reason that the only remaining line item left to make a cut, albeit
unrealistically, is litigation costs.

EXPENDITURE DETAIL
DEPARTMENT: ciTy ATTORNEY DIVISION: COST CENTER: 051
ACCOUNT ITEM ACCOUNT
NUMBER JUSTIFICATION AMOUNT TOTAL
3050 The only possible area to cut 110, 164
5% , as requested would be in
litigation expense . But to do
so is unrealistic since these
costs will still be incurred in
respect to the pending and future
cases both in-house and outside .
If a realistic number is not
included, when costs arise they
will still have to be paid.

COMMENTS ON BUDGETED PROGRAM (Program Comments) :
We have not budgeted for 1 attorney position and 2 legal secretary
positions that we have been authorized, representing a salary savings to
the City but which results in a much higher cost in outside counsel.
( Although such costs are not realistically reflected in the outside
litigation estimates. ) In May of 1990 we also eliminated 1 of 3
investigator positions.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Shauna Clark
City Administrator
FROM: James F. Penman
City Attorney
SUBJECT: YOUR MEMORANDUM RE: TRANSFER TAX ON SALE OF REAL PROPERTY
DATE: 8 July 1993
CC: Mayor Tom Minor
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
In response to your memorandum of June 22, 1993 to Senior Assistant
City Attorney Dennis Barlow, it is our belief that a property
transfer tax can be imposed pursuant to Fielder vs. City of Los
Angeles ( 1993 ) 14 Ca1 .App 4th 137.
The practical problems of collection may still be significant and
obviously those will have to be considered. The practical
problems, while not legal issues, have legal ramifications. We
will need to address those as they are proposed or othewise arise.
