Title
Town Attorney's Report: Special Legal Services
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
With the renaming of Utilities to Castle Rock Water we have a new “brand” for which we would like to protect the use of both name, logos and images as trademarks. This is also an opportunity to inventory other Town trademarks and obtain appropriate protection. Our office does not have particular expertise in this area and we are requesting Council authorization to retain special counsel to assist the team in this regard. Inman Flynn comes recommended to us and we have 2017 budget capacity to retain the firm. We do not anticipate the fees will exceed $5000. The retainer agreement for the firm is attached. If Council concurs, a motion to the following effect is requested:
I move to approve the retainer agreement with Inman Flynn Blesterfeld and Brentinger PC, for special legal services.
