Cemetery fence repair bid tabled pending insurance review
Summary
Council reviewed a $10,004.83 repair bid for cracked cemetery fence panels but voted to table the item while the city pursues an insurance claim and requests an expanded bid.
Councilors reviewed photographs and a contractor assessment of cracks and missing pillars in the cemetery fence. A contractor submitted a bid to repair two panels at a cost of $10,004.83; councilors noted other cracked sections that may require replacement as well.
Because the city has submitted a claim to its trust/insurance carrier, council voted to table the matter until the insurer responds and staff can obtain an updated bid covering three panels. The council directed staff to return next month with the insurer’s response and an amended contractor estimate.
Councilors stressed they would not assume liability for damage without documentation of when and how the damage occurred; staff will follow up with the insurer and contractor for next steps.
