Courthouse flood-insurance settlement tabled pending insurer review
Summary
The county tabled a proposed settlement from the North Dakota Insurance Reserve Fund for basement flood damage at the courthouse while the state's attorney seeks clarification of allocations; commissioners noted emergency expenses were paid from the county emergency fund.
The county’s insurance matter regarding basement flooding at the courthouse was tabled after the county’s attorney requested the insurer investigate allocation questions further. The county’s attorney said in the record, "I would ask that this matter be tabled," and the board agreed to give the North Dakota Insurance Reserve Fund an opportunity to follow up before the board takes action.
Commissioners asked that staff include the amount the county would need to cover any shortfall when the item returns. The chair noted that the county had temporarily paid out related expenses from its emergency fund and that staff would deposit the check into that fund while insurers clarify allocations.
