in the 25 march 2008 alexandria city council legal committee, mayor roy "put forth an agenda item fact sheet it does not have a contract attached which does not follow the normal rules" the mayor said that he would work with the legal committee chair mr. everett hobbs, "to negotiate any legal fees or structure that needs to be met for an ordinance "authorizing the mayor to enter into a professional services agreement with john adragna, esquire." because "the administration seeks the services of mr. adragna to assist in the litigation of city of alexandria versus cleco corporation in the event the present mediation is not immediately resolved - we think this is necessary, mr. adragna is one of the best in the business...[and is the] kind of person we would need in the litigation phase of this case as opposed to where we've been."
