CITY COUNCIL
Staff Report |
July 6, 2021 CONSENT AGENDA |
| | | | | | | | TO:
| Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
| SUBMITTED BY:
| Robin Scattini, Acting Director of Budget and Contracts
| APPROVED BY:
| Chip Rerig, City Administrator
| SUBJECT: | May 2021 Check Register Summary |
|
| | | | | | | | RECOMMENDATION: | Approve the check register for May 2021. |
|
| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND/SUMMARY: | The check register is produced from the City's financial system. The report groups the checks by the respective department or function. The check register includes the check number, the name of the vendor, a description of the purchase, the check issue date and the amount of the check. Per the California Supreme Court's decision in the case of Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors v. Superior Court (Dec. 29, 2016) (2016 WL 7473802), the check register excludes the specific invoice payments for legal services incurred for pending and active investigations, pending and active litigation, as well as recently concluded matters. The Supreme Court has ruled that these specific invoices are protected under attorney-client privilege and need not be disclosed under the Public Records Act.
On the last page of the report, staff have included the contract balance for the respective vendors that were paid in May. |
|
| | | | | | | | FISCAL IMPACT: | The check register summary for May 2021 totals $1,423,502. |
|
| | | | | | | | PRIOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION: | Council ratified the April 2021 check register at its June 1 regular meeting. |
