AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Deborah S. Traffenstedt, ATCM /City Cl k �S t
BY: La -Dell VanDeren, Deputy City Clerk 7,6
DATE: January 8, 2002 (Special CC Meeting of 1/9/02)
SUBJECT: Consider Rejection Of Claim: Robynn Tholander
BACKGROUND
On November 26, 2001, the City received the above referenced claim
for damages. The claim was forwarded to the City's claims adjuster
for review.
DISCUSSION
This referenced claim describes an incident that occurred on
November 8, 2001. Robynn Tholander is claiming property damage to
her motor vehicle due to her failure to stop at the intersection of
Tierra Rejada and Miller Parkway and her collision with another
vehicle. The claimant states that the traffic signals were not
operational at that location and that there were no stop signs
posted at the intersection. Our preliminary field investigation
found that a contractor was working on the traffic signals at that
location and had placed the traffic controls (stop signs) in the
intersection.. The police report filed states that stop signs were
in place at the intersection at the time of the incident and that
the claimant was cited for failure to stop for inoperative traffic
lights. The City's claims adjuster has recommended that a standard
rejection letter be sent to the claimant.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Reject the claim and direct staff to send a standard rejection
letter to the claimant.
