Wednesday, July 1, 2015 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Bryant to continue as City Attorney By sue stafford Correspondent Long-time Sisters City Attorney Steve Bryant will continue in that role for the City of Sisters. Acting as the Contract Review Board, council mem- bers voted 4-0 Thursday night to approve a new three- year contract with Bryant, Emerson & Fitch for City attorney services and autho- rized the City manager to execute the contract. The pre- vious contract was effective July 1, 2012 until June 30, 2016 with two possible one- year extensions. There was no discus- sion regarding the contract approval. Recently, Bryant was called into question for alleged conflict-of-interest claims regarding his firm’s relationship with Kevin Cox and Ageia Health Services, applicant for development of the senior living facility at McKenzie Meadows Village. In a letter from Bryant to the City regarding the con- flict-of-interest allegations, Bryant stated, “…my office does not represent Kevin Cox or Ageia Health Services, LLC in connection with any matters involving the City of Sisters, including any development application or other ‘disputes.’ Mr. Cox and Ageia Health Services, LLC have been and continue to be represented by Laura Cooper, an attorney in Bend, Oregon, regarding their development application. “Another attorney in my office does represent Mr. Cox relative to some personal matters and to the formation and management of his cor- porations. None of that work involves any issues concern- ing the City of Sisters and there is no conflict in our rep- resentation of the City…” The full text of Bryant’s letter to Councilors may be found with the online ver- sion of this story at www. nuggetnews.com. In other business, two members were appointed to the Planning Commission. Roger Detweiler, out- of-city member, is a retired attorney and former execu- tive director of multiple professional and nonprofit organizations. Daryl Tewalt, in-city member, has served on the Planning Commission for almost 10 years and was reappointed for another term. Starts Friday Fri., July 3 – Thurs., July 9 2015 Summer Music Line-up!
