<br />Re: Proposal to Provide Strategic Consulting Services for Revenue Measure Planning
<br />
<br />VIA EMAIL TRANSMISSION
<br />
<br />Dear Lianne:
<br />
<br />I was excited to have the opportunity to meet with the City Manager, you and David recently to
<br />discuss a potential collaboration on the City’s behalf moving forward. Our firm’s institutional record
<br />of success within the City of San Leandro makes our team uniquely qualified to represent the City
<br />again at this time. I speak for our entire organization when I say that we found our last collaboration
<br />to be highly effective and that we would enjoy serving the City’s needs again.
<br />
<br />Though we know each other well, in consideration of our new relationship with City Manager
<br />Zapata and the fact that there are two new City Councilmembers who have joined the City since
<br />Measure Z, a comprehensive proposal is provided for your records.
<br />
<br />INTRODUCTION
<br />
<br />Since our last collaboration with the City of San Leandro in 2010, the Lew Edwards Group (LEG) has
<br />now passed more than $30 Billion in California revenue measures, with a 95% success rate. LEG’s
<br />recent successes have included successful Revenue Measures and 218 Projects for clients such as the
<br />County of Fresno, Santa Clara County Library District, and the cities of Artesia, Bellflower, Benicia,
<br />Ceres, Concord, El Cerrito, Elk Grove, Emeryville, Fairfield, Gardena, Hercules, Huntington Beach,
<br />Indio, La Mirada, Lathrop, Moraga, Newark, Novato, Palm Springs, Pinole, Ridgecrest, Riverside,
<br />Santa Fe Springs, Santa Maria, South Pasadena, Tracy, Vallejo, and Wildomar, among several others.
<br />
<br />LEG is currently assisting the cities of Adelanto, Cloverdale, Gilroy, Larkspur, Los Banos, Modesto,
<br />National City, Rancho Cordova, Rancho Cucamonga, Rohnert Park, Santa Fe Springs, Seaside, and
<br />Stanton among other clients in their 2013 and 2014 ballot measure planning needs.
