Re: City of Atlantic Beach vs. Oak Harbor
Dear Glenn:
Yesterday T. received several documents relating to financial
information in regard to the Oak Harbor purchase. They include an
economic valuation prepared by Rachlin & Cohen in April, 1988 ;
estimated cash flow prepared by Touche Ross in July, 1988 ;
projected cash flow for ten years apparently prepared by Touche
Ross in October, 1988; and allocation of expenses by BH&R; memo of
October 24 , 1988 from Finance Director to City Manager; hand
written notes prepared by Finance Director; Minutes from May 9,
1988 Commission meeting regarding values of Oak Harbor utilities
system; cash flow projected dated September 12 , 1988 ; analysis of
expenses and allocation dated April 22 , 1988 ; and Gee and Jenson
opinion regarding system repair costs dated July 26, 1988 .
I have also enclosed the independent auditors ' report for City
of Atlantic Beach dated September 30, 1989 and September 30, 1990,
which contain pertinent information regarding the Oak Harbor
system. Apparently these documents, together with those previously
forwarded to you, are all documents and information previously
requested by you.
As I mentioned earlier, I think it is very important for you
to meet with Mayor Gulliford. He indicated to me last night that
he was unable to make one previously scheduled meeting with you,
but is available to meet in the near future. Thereafter, meetings
with the Finance Director, and whoever else is necessary in order
for you to complete your investigation and evaluation regarding
potential legal action, should be done. I will be happy to assist
in arranging any such meetings.

Re: City of Atlantic Beach v.
Oak Harbor Water & Sewer Treatment Plant, et al
Dear Bill:
This letter confirms my recent meeting with you and Alan
Jensen concerning my firm' s representation of the City of Atlantic
Beach in a potential action for damages resulting from the purchase
of the subject treatment plant.
I am flattered that I would be asked to litigate this
matter, and I would very much like to represent the City in this
case. Pending receipt of the collaborating documents that I have
requested, my firm would be willing to undertake the representation
under the following terms:
1 . We would charge an hourly fee of $100.00 per hour
versus a 33 1/3 per cent contingency fee.
2 . The hourly charges would be limited to a total of
$30,000.00 excluding all costs if the case was lost; otherwise, the
higher of the hourly rate versus the contingency would apply.
3 . All costs would be paid as they are incurred by the
City of Atlantic Beach.
Again, thank you for considering my firm in this most
important matter and we look forward to hearing from you very soon.
Very truly yours,
BA' ES, BARNES & COHEN, P.A.
