The motion, made by Alderman Fague and seconded by Alderman Pabon, asked the council to "concur with City Attorney Vertucca and settle case 23 WC006362 in the amount of $62,376.25," and invoked council authority granted in executive session. The roll call showed eight ayes and the motion carried.
City Attorney Vertucca presented the communication recommending settlement and the council voted on the motion during the meeting. Aldermen Caldwell, Bowman, Leija, Faith, Pabon, Palaszek, Bruckman and Carmichael recorded aye votes on the roll call.
No additional details about the underlying claim, claimant, or allocation of payments were discussed on the public record during the motion. The settlement amount and case number were stated on the record; other specifics were not specified.
The council placed the item under the J-series communications and referenced its executive-session authority as the basis for resolving the matter.
