Title
APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH NP&S MANAGEMENT, INC. D/B/A S. RENÉE NARLOCH & ASSOCIATES TO PERFORM RECRUITMENT AND CANDIDATE REVIEW SERVICES FOR THE POSITION OF CITY ATTORNEY FOR THE CITY.
BACKGROUND: Effective April 30, 2016, City Attorney, Eugene M. Steinfeld will be retiring from the City of Margate after over thirty-seven years of service. At the April 15, 2015 City Commission workshop, the consensus of the City Commission was to utilize the services of an outside recruiter to search for an in-house City Attorney.
Renée Narloch, as part of another firm, conducted the search for the City Attorney for the City of Coconut Creek. This firm no longer handles searches beyond the west coast of Florida. The proposed Agreement with S. Renée Narloch & Associates would provide for recruitment and candidate review services for the position of City Attorney.
RECOMMENDATION: For approval.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not to exceed $24,500.00
