Ms. Fairall noted that this ordinance gives the Legal Department and the Town Manager the authority to settle minor property damage claims under $15,000. Council Member Bowen asked for clarification that the $15,000 is per claim and the potential for multiple claims in a given fiscal year. Ms. Fairall responded that there is a possibility of a half dozen claims in a fiscal year, but normally the small claims are under $500 and she didn't recall any claims approaching $15,000 that we either haven't sent to the insurance company pursuant to our coverage agreement or brought to Council. For purposes of this discussion, the claims are a rock in a windshield or a minor car accident. There is nothing in the ordinance that would prevent staff from coming to Council for direction. Staff would continue to use its good judgment to update Council on the types of claims we are dealing with. Motion to approved by Council Member Kai, second by Council Member Bowen.
