Discussion/Review and Possible Approval of a Contract for Legal Services with JVAM Law
The Board discussed the proposed contract for legal services, during which concerns were
raised regarding the procurement process and the withdrawal of previous applicants. Debate
focused on whether prior communications between a Board member and a bidding firm were
adequately disclosed, with some asserting that public disclosures had been made while
administration maintained that a lack of transparency during the formal selection process
remained a primary concern. Staff defended the integrity of the process and emphasized the
urgent need to appoint legal counsel to ensure municipal stability, noting that the current firm
remained a technically compliant option following the voluntary withdrawal of other
candidates.
Public Comment
Jennifer Rausch — Argued that should statements in the RFP were improperly treated as
mandatory requirements rather than scoring criteria. She contended that inconsistent
disclosure expectations between firms created an unfair process and exposed the Town to

Discussion and Direction Regarding Disclosure of Information Related to Legal Counsel RFP
Process
Interim Town Administrator Glen Smith reported that, following the recent awarding of the
contract, it was discovered that law firm Wyatt Hamilton Findlay (WHF) had undisclosed
interactions with Trustee Moseley between December and January, including text messages
and a video conference. Concerns were raised regarding the lack of transparency between
both the applying attorney and the board member, with Interim Town Administrator Smith
noting that such a failure to disclose creates a precarious foundation for the town's new legal
representation. The matter was left to the Board to determine the appropriate direction
regarding the legal counsel contract.
Trustee Moseley asserted that a public disclosure of this contact was made during the January
8th Board meeting, prior to the Board receiving the RFP, where he noted calling the firm to
gauge interest in providing municipal services. While Interim Town Administrator Smith

Discussion and Direction Regarding Disclosure of Information Related to Legal Counsel RFP
Process
Interim Town Administrator Glen Smith reported that, following the recent awarding of the
contract, it was discovered that law firm Wyatt Hamilton Findlay (WHF) had undisclosed
interactions with Trustee Moseley between December and January, including text messages
and a video conference. Concerns were raised regarding the lack of transparency between
both the applying attorney and the board member, with Interim Town Administrator Smith
noting that such a failure to disclose creates a precarious foundation for the town's new legal
representation. The matter was left to the Board to determine the appropriate direction
regarding the legal counsel contract.
Trustee Moseley asserted that a public disclosure of this contact was made during the January
8th Board meeting, prior to the Board receiving the RFP, where he noted calling the firm to
gauge interest in providing municipal services. While Interim Town Administrator Smith

Discussion/Review and Possible Approval of a Contract for Legal Services with Wyatt Hamilton
Findlay (WHF)
The Board reviewed the proposed legal services contract, focusing on travel costs and efficient
billing practices. It was noted that travel from Denver will be billed solely for mileage at
current IRS rates with no charge for travel time, and the Board emphasized being judicious in
requesting attorney attendance at meetings to manage costs. Discussion included the "value
billing" clause, which allows for rate adjustments when tasks are performed by paralegals, and
the absence of an automatic CPI-based increase, which was viewed as favorable for future
negotiations. Additional clarifications were made regarding the firm’s ability to utilize outside
associates at contracted rates and the requirement that invoicing follow Colorado statutory
increments. Staff stated that that all invoices are already itemized to allow for proper
allocation between the General Fund and the Water Fund.
