FINANCIAL STATEMENT The estimated cost of Mr. Iserson's consultant services for this project is $57,050, with any additional time authorized (up to a total of $65,000) billed on a time and materials basis. Mr. Iserson would be employed by the City of Pleasanton, however, the HBPOA would reimburse the City for his consulting fee.
