Alexander aldermen call special meeting to appoint city attorney tonight

A special meeting has been scheduled for 6 PM at city hall Tuesday, June 24 by City of Alexander aldermen Andrea Bearden, Farren Wadley and Juanita Wilson. The purpose of the meeting is to appoint a new city attorney. The public is invited to attend.

Four attorneys submitted proposals to the city stating their qualifications, three included fee schedules. Two of the attorneys attended the regular council meeting held June 16; Kimberly Eden and Kevin M. Lemley. Both attorneys were interviewed during the regular meeting.

Lemley has been practicing law since 2005. He's defended class-action law suits in both state and federal courts when he was an associate with the Allen Law Firm, P.C.; was a staff attorney for the Arkansas Public Service Commission; and advised government agencies regarding compliance with various state and federal regulations when he was a counsel with Mitchell Williams. He now has his own practice, Kevin M. Lemley, P.A.. He also recently won a lawsuit against Arkansas Municipal league attorney John Wilkerson.

Before receiving her law degree in December, 2011 Eden worked for the Arkansas Fair Housing Commission and the Law Offices of Gary Green (Personal Injury and General Practice). From 2012 to 2013 she was with Hosto & Buchan, P.L.L.C. practicing debt collection law. Currently Eden is an attorney with the Hoskyn Law Firm practicing family Law, probate, estate planning, and general practice.

Both attorneys were asked to submit a fee proposal and e-mail it to the mayor. The mayor was to forward the proposals to council members.

Former city attorney Carla Miller submitted her resignation in April "to become effective no later than July 1, 2014." At its regular monthly meeting, held May 19, the council voted six to two to accept Miller's resignation "effective immediately."

According to the meeting announcement the goal is to have a new attorney in place for the next regular meeting July 21. By state law no other city business can be conducted tonight except that which is posted as reason for the special meeting.
