Committee questions insurance payment and $10,003.23 adjuster estimate for courthouse repairs
Summary
Committee members flagged a $5,000 deductible and questioned a $10,003.23 adjuster estimate covering demolition, glazing, scaffolding and SERVPRO remediation; members said they will consult insurance and defer decisions until the finance meeting.
Committee members questioned whether a processed insurance payment represented final settlement and whether the insurance estimate covered all necessary repair work. One committee member summarized: the payout appeared to be the replacement cost less a $5,000 deductible and noted a listed adjuster estimate of $10,003.23 covering demolition, glazing, storefronts, scaffolding, temporary repairs, and remediation.
The chair said the committee should not act until staff and insurance representatives are consulted. "I don't think we should do anything with this until we have a discussion," the chair said, and members asked staff to bring documentation and any communications that accompanied the check to the finance meeting so the finance committee can determine whether additional payment or contractor approval is needed.
