I request you consider amending my contract for services, to pay me less for more fixed
hours in exchange for a higher monthly payment and a longer 7 year contract term.
Currently the City pays me $20,000 per month for 1,680 hours of work per year. The
City pays me $100 per hour after that. During the last two fiscal years my hours worked
were substantially higher. In the last fiscal year my additional compensation and
extraordinary expense items was nearly $180,000. This doesn't include very much of the
Malburg Generating Station, which, going forward, with the financing and permitting,
will require a substantial amount of time.
I propose working an additional approximate 800 hours per year for a total of 2,400
hours, for a higher monthly payment -- $27,500. I will take the responsibility for all
extraordinary expense items; the City will reimburse me, as it does now, for
transportation costs.
I have attached a proposed amendment to be added to my existing contract. I look
forward to discussing this matter with you at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Eric Fresch
