Item No. 6 <br />TO: Mayor & City Council <br />FROM: Gene Anderson, Interim City Manager & Finance Director <br />SUBJECT: AUTHORIZING TML TO ENGAGE LEGAL REPRESENTATION ON <br />BEHALF OF THE CITY OF PARIS AND DELEGATING AUTHORITY TO THE CITY <br />MANAGER TO EXECUTE IRS FORM 2848 IRS POWER OF ATTORNEY <br />DATE: August 28, 2019 <br />BACKGROUND: The City of Paris, along with numerous other cities, worked through TML to <br />file IRS forms 1094-C and 1095-C. TML outsourced this task to a third party. Apparently, these <br />forms were not timely filed with the IRS in 2016 and 2017. <br />STATUS OF ISSUE: TML has engaged the law firm of Mitchell, Williams, Selig, Gates, & <br />Woodyard, PLLC to represent TML and the affected cities. The City Council should adopt a <br />resolution authorizing the city manager to execute a power of attorney allowing the Mitchell firm <br />to represent the City of Paris in this matter. <br />BUDGET: No impact. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Motion to adopt a resolution authorizing representation in an IRS <br />matter and further delegating authority to the city manager to sign IRS Form 2848. <br />
