Committee minutes document prior split votes on $230,000 legal-services request
Summary
The minutes record a carried HR Committee vote and a defeated Finance Committee motion related to an earlier $230,000 appropriation request for outside counsel; the history precedes the two separate approvals recorded May 12, 2026.
Committee minutes reference a larger $230,000 appropriation that had been carried at the April 28 Human Resources Committee but defeated at the May 5 Finance Committee. The $230,000 total was described as $200,000 offset by interfund revenue (0142003.428010) and $30,000 from fund balance/contingency to pay retained outside counsel for ongoing litigation.
The minutes record prior roll-call results: at the HR Committee the motion (mover: Kehl) recorded Ayes: 4, Noes: 2 (Leuer, Roche); at the Finance Committee on May 5 a motion (mover: May) produced a 3–3 split (Ayes: Kehl, Klein, May; Noes: Roche, Roberts, Leuer) and was defeated. The May 12 minutes separate that larger request into two discrete committee actions ($30,000 and $200,000), both recorded on the current agenda.
