After executive sessions, Mills council waives ambulance claims, authorizes tentative ADR update and denies a claim to LGLP
Summary
In closed-session business the council voted to excuse and waive two ambulance-related claims as uncollectible, authorized a tentative ADR update, and later denied a separate claim and directed it to LGLP for further handling.
Following multiple executive sessions, the Mills City Council took several legal actions that were announced in open session. A staff member told the council the recommendation was to excuse and waive two claims related to ambulance services on "intestate estates" as uncollectible; the council moved, seconded and approved the recommendation on a recorded voice vote.
The council then returned from a separate legal executive session and voted to approve alternative dispute resolution (ADR) on a tentative basis and to authorize staff to provide an update regarding that ADR process.
In a later return to open session the council moved to deny a different claim and submit it to LGLP; the motion was seconded and approved on a council voice vote.
The record identifies the council members who were present during these sessions but does not provide roll-call attribution for the recorded voice votes; the transcript indicates the motions passed by multiple recorded "aye" responses.
Because much of the deliberation occurred in executive session, the public record in the transcript contains only the formal recommendations and the open-session motions approving or denying the items.
