SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Fresno Local Agency Formation
Commission
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a Professional Services Agreement between the County of Fresno and the Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission for County professional services, effective upon execution, which includes a three-year base contract, and automatic one-year extensions until either party exercises its right to terminate by giving six-month advance written notice (estimated revenue to County of $60,000 per year).
