requested for approval of selecting Satterwhite & Associates for legal Counsel for the

lack of cooperation, communication, and information she is getting; and Mayor Wilson
has given him a lot of example. Mr. Satterwhite commented that he had met with all the
Councilmembers except Councilmember Brown and aired things out. He said that
Mobile has a State Statute that allows an attorney for the Mayors office and an attorney
for the City Council. Mr. Satterwhite said he and the Mayor contacted Gina Gregory in
Mobile who said it works well for them. He said a mediation was suggested with a
mediator to help reach a solution for these issues. He said we need a better relationship
