Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tom Mauk
Interim City Manager

Interim Director of Finance
AGENDA
ITEM NO 12
DATE January 20, 2015
SUBJECT: EXTEND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH
INTELLIBRIDGE PARTNERS
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council authorize staff to extend the agreement with IntelliBridge
Partners for accounting services at $56 per hour not to exceed total amount of $52,400.
DISCUSSION:
The City of West Covina has contracted with IntelliBridge Partners for accounting services since
September 2014. The accountant assigned to the City already knows the job and has been making
good progress towards bringing routine accounting up to date. We have now spent the $30,000
authorized by staff and would like to continue to use this service until the accountant recruitment can
be completed. An additional $22,400 is enough to get us through the week of April 7, 2015. That is
enough time to complete the accountant recruitment and give the IntelliBridge person some time to
familiarize the new staff member with their basic duties before leaving.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved this report, and will review any proposed extension of
the existing agreement with IntelliBridge.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact will be $56 per hour up to $22,400 and would be paid within the Finance
Department budget from salary savings due to current vacancies. Total contract amount of $52,400.
