Court approves Olson & Olson as approved outside counsel list for economic-development work
Summary
Commissioners approved adding Olson & Olson to the county’s list of outside counsel options for an economic-development project so the county can engage counsel more quickly if needed; the motion passed by voice vote.
Staff said two law firms had been contacted to represent the county on a complex economic-development matter and recommended Olson & Olson as a preferred option given experience with related transactions. A committee member moved to approve Olson & Olson for outside counsel representation; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.
Staff said having an approved firm on the list would allow the county to move faster if documents or agreements must be negotiated. No dollar amounts were approved with the motion; any engagement would require a separate agreement before fees are incurred.
