RE: An Resolution Approving a Property Damage Settlement in the Amount of$17,674.05 for
Damages to City of Port Arthur Senior/Recreation Center(1308 9th Avenue)
Nature of the request: On June 20, 2018, the Senior/Recreation Center sustained damage
when the indoor pool flooded several offices and destroying contents at the property.
Staff Analysis, Considerations: The City has Physical Damage insurance coverage through
Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool (TML) with a $5,000.00 deductible.
TML has offered the City a settlement of$22,674.05, less the $5,000.00 deductible, making the
final settlement offer$17,674.05 (Exhibit"A" attached).
Recommendation: I recommend approval of Proposed Resolution No. 20636 authorizing the
property damage settlement against TML for damage sustained to the Senior/Recreation Center
(1308 9th Avenue). TML has offered to settle the claim for $22,674.05, less the $5,000.00
deductible, making the final settlement offer $17,674.05. This is considered a fair and
reasonable settlement.
Budget Considerations: The funds received will be deposited in the General Fund
