Beaumont Council Hires $895 Per Hour Law Firm for WRCOG

Because Stealing $42 Million From the County, Wasting $5 Million on Lawyers, and $18 Million on Interest Isn’t Enough.

In the fastest Council Meeting ever held the Beaumont City Council Unanimously to Retain Orrick Herrington and Sutcliffe, LLP to Represent the City in Connection with Financial and Restructuring Challenges Facing the City.

On July 11, 2016 an additional Continuance was given to see if the two parties can come to an Agreement.

This gives the City of Beaumont 90 days to make a plan for repayment. If the City can’t/won’t the WRCOG will return to Court and get the Judgement for $60+ Million to be repaid in 10 years as required by Law.
