Mayor clarifies tort-claim handling; staff authorized for ambulance training; FEMA meeting set
Summary
Mayor Erica Hearrean said a pending tort claim will be handled by the town's insurance and does not require council action; council approved wilderness-rescue training for ambulance staff tied to a repeater installation and staff reminded members of a FEMA meeting on July 28.
Mayor Erica Hearrean told the council that the difference between a lawsuit and a tort claim determines who handles each matter, and she said the pending tort claim will be handled by the town's insurance carrier and does not require council decision-making. The mayor framed the item as an insurance-handled matter rather than a council action.
Courtney Wyborney asked for council approval to take wilderness-rescue training associated with an upcoming ambulance repeater installation; the council approved the additional training. Clerk Melissa Bulger also updated council members on the cemetery mower, the vac trailer and the senior-center lease, and reminded the council of a FEMA meeting scheduled for July 28 at 9:30 a.m. in the library. Council recorded a plan to address weeds near the wastewater treatment plant and noted that Royal Tree Company will remove a dead tree at the mini motocross track within one to two weeks.
