Loading...
Summary
A Woodstock resident described a reported December break‑in with interior freeze damage; he said Primex denied his claim and that promises of a meeting between police, fire and ambulance leadership to review the case did not occur. Board members discussed possible next steps and asked local emergency boards to follow up.
During the public‑comment period a resident recounted an alleged break‑in of his Main Street home in December, saying two outer doors were closed but an internal door and a window were left open and interior cold damaged surfaces. He said he photographed the damage, kept the broken window and other evidence, and filed a claim with Primex that he said the carrier denied.The resident described repeated attempts to get a meeting among local chiefs; he said Chief John Busad had indicated he would convene the police chief, fire chief and another chief to review responsibility, but that the meeting never took place. The resident said town staff and chiefs repeatedly told him they would follow up and he did not receive updates.Board members discussed insurance protocols and whether the ambulance or fire service should file a claim against their own carriers; an ambulance-board member present said the ambulance had not filed and reported reluctance from that department to file. Several board members suggested asking Chief John to file information with the town’s insurance carrier and to coordinate among carriers so liability could be sorted. The ambulance-board member said he would speak with Chief John and report back.The resident said he had paid for repairs to avoid further damage and was seeking guidance; the transcript records the board offering to help facilitate contact between the ambulance board and town insurance but contains no final resolution.The board did not take a formal vote on the resident’s matter in the transcript provided.
