2/19/20011 JUDICIARY & LEGISLATION COMMITTEE RECOMMENDED FOR ADOPTION

Minutes note: Ald. Gordon moved for adoption of a substitute resolution granting the appellant $1,903.00. Ald. Richards moved for adoption of a substitute resolution granting the appellant $307.49, based upon a review of the records relating to multiple previous street and sidewalk repairs performed in the vicinity in the year prior to the claimant's fall along with testimony from the claimant and City representatives. Based upon this review, members of the Committee believe it is most cost-effective to compromise and reduce the amount claimed from $3800 to $307.49. The amount recommended for settlement of the claim, $307.49, represents reimbursement for ambulance transportation and a health insurance co-payment. This resolution would release the City from any further liability arising from this incident. Prevailed.
