body

The City of Luverne’s 2026 agreement with Flaherty & Hood, P.A. appoints the firm, led by primary attorney Robert T. Scott, to provide civil legal services at set hourly rates, with support from designated assistant attorneys and staff. The City Administrator serves as the main point of contact, and the firm may attend meetings and advise on a wide range of municipal matters. Billing occurs monthly with reimbursement for applicable expenses, and either party may terminate the agreement with 60 days’ notice. The contract establishes the firm as an independent contractor, outlines data practices and indemnification responsibilities, and affirms that all work products produced under the agreement become the property of the City.
