The Durango Herald: After Durango City Council approved the hiring of a new interim city attorney on Monday, councilors immediately set to work addressing yet another open records request and potential lawsuit.

The open records request was the subject of an executive session on Monday held after City Council approved the hiring of William Tuthill of WATT Legal LLC to fill the interim city attorney position.

The records request was submitted by Pagosa Springs attorney Matt Roane, who has filed two other records requests and subsequent lawsuits against the city since September, naming Faye Harmer, city clerk, in the complaints submitted to district court.
