The cost for final candidates to travel to interview with the Mayor and City <br />Council is not included. Such costs are typically paid by the client on a reimbursement basis, directly <br />to the candidates. These costs are extremely difficult to estimate because they depend on where the <br />candidates are located. Typically, out-of-state costs run about $750 to $1,000 per person. <br /> <br />The City of Paris' liability to The Mercer Group, Inc. for services rendered under this agreement will <br />not exceed the agreed upon price unless an increase is authorized by the Mayor and City Council in <br />writing. <br /> <br />We will submit monthly invoices for fees and expenses. It is our practice to bill one-third at the start <br />of the search, one-third at the end of30 days, and one-third upon delivery of the Final Report.
