That the Mayor allocate $25,000 for the remainder of FY-18 for this Board to hire its own legal counsel to provide independent and objective legal analysis and advice on issues that involve interpretation of the law in terms of what powers the Board of Aldermen and the Mayor have, or any other issues, for example, the potential exposure of the city to a lawsuit if this Board were to pass certain legislation or take certain other actions.
