Summary

A board member asked whether insurance would reimburse a line item for damage at Jackson Park. Staff responded the vehicle damage occurred last year and repairs were only completed and billed this year.

During the administrator's presentation of bills, a board member pointed to a line-item noting damage at Jackson Park and asked whether the city would be reimbursed. Mr. Ikes and maintenance staff explained the incident had occurred previously and that the work was only completed this year, which is why the bill appears on the current report.

A maintenance staff member described the damage: the vehicle went through a guardrail into a planting bed near the sign; crews "roughed it back together" and the full repair was done later. The board did not take additional action on the item during the meeting and noted questions about insurance reimbursement may require follow-up with the appropriate staff.
