INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
Office of Safety & Risk Management
Date: July 13,2018
To: Harvey L. Robinson, Interim City Manager
From: Trameka A. Williams, Safety & Risk Manager
RE: A Resolution Approving a Property Damage Supplemental Settlement in the Amount of
$10,233.60 for Damages to City of Port Arthur Police Unit#2090
Nature of the request: On August 30, 2017, Police Unit #2090 (2016 Chevrolet Tahoe),
sustained damages during the flooding from Hurricane Harvey.
Staff Analysis, Considerations: The City has Automobile Physical Damage insurance
coverage through Texas Municipal League Intergovermnental Risk Pool (TML) with a $2,500.00
deductible which the City has met with previous claims. The City accepted an initial repair
payment on February 13, 2018 in the amount of $3,282.00. TML has offered the City a
supplemental settlement amount of $10,233.60 for total claim amount of $13,515.60 (Exhibit
"A" attached). This amount is considered to be fair and reasonable for damages to Police Unit
#2090. If additional damages are discovered, TML may issue a supplemental payment.
Recommendation: I recommend approval of Proposed Resolution No. 20344 authorizing the
property damage settlement against TML for damage sustained to Police Unit #2090 (2016
Chevrolet Tahoe). TML has offered to settle the claim for $10,233.60. This is considered a fair
and reasonable settlement for the estimated repairs.
Buduiet Considerations: The funds received will be deposited in the Insurance Proceeds
Account #147-0000-369.85-00, Project#082617.
