a set of final draft guidelines be brought back to the Board at the first regular Board meeting in <br />2008 for additional review and approval. <br />Since the October 9t" meeting, Andy Sachs with the Dispute Settlement Center, with some <br />minimal organizational assistance from County staff, has been working to bring the various <br />interests together for discussion. To date, Mr. Sachs has invested eight and a half hours and <br />anticipates another 2-4 hours prior to an upcoming mediatian session. Following that meeting, <br />Mr. Sachs anticipates another 2-6 hours of follow-up work, including the drafting of a <br />Memorandum of Understanding. Mr. Sachs has requested an additional 15 hours of mediation <br />time to complete this effort. Mr. Sachs has also noted a charge of $85 an hour. <br />Based on the information above and Mr. Sachs' request, it is proposed that the Board approve <br />up to an additional 15 hours for the mediation process. The cost for just the additional 15 hours <br />would be $1,275 ($85 per hour). <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: On October 9t", the Board approved the pursuit of the mediation <br />process with the County paying 50% of the costs for mediation for up to 10 hours of mediation <br />preparation and actual meeting time. An estimated cost of approximately $75 per hour for <br />mediation services potentially through the Dispute Settlement Center had been noted in the <br />October 9t" Board meeting materials. The total potential cost to the County at that time was up <br />to $375. <br />It is proposed that up to an additional 15 hours be added to the mediation timeframe and that <br />the cost per hour would be $85, making the potential total approved time 25 hours at $85 per <br />hour. The costs could total up to $2,125, with the County potentially being responsible for 50% <br />of this cost - $1,062.50. The other participants/groups would also need to commit to the <br />additional hours and paying the additional costs up to $1,062.50. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board authorize up to an <br />additional 15 hours of mediation time through the Dispute Settlement Center for a total of up to <br />25 hours of total mediation time, with the other participants/groups being asked to commit to the <br />additional 15 hours, for a total of 25 hours total mediation time, and the associated cost. <br />
