AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Ky Spangler, City Clerk
DATE: 06/03/2020 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Rejection of Claim from Virginia G. Fahmy
BACKGROUND
The City received the above referenced claim on April 24, 2020. A copy of the claim is
provided under separate cover. The claim was forwarded to the City’s Claims Adjuster,
Carl Warren & Company (Carl Warren), for review. Pursuant to Moorpark Municipal
Code Section 3.14.060, the City Council has sole authority to allow, compromise, or
settle claims for an amount in excess of $50,000.
DISCUSSION
The stated reason for the claim is for personal injury that occurred due to a fall on a
sidewalk. Carl Warren has recommended that a standard rejection letter be sent to the
claimant. The claim submitted for this incident is in excess of the City Manager’s
$50,0000 authority provided under the Moorpark Municipal Code, and therefore City
Council action is required to formally reject the claim.
FISCAL IMPACT
No known fiscal impact.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Reject the claim and direct staff to send a standard rejection letter to the claimant.
