RESIDENTS REQUESTS AND COMMENTS FROM THE FLOOR: 19 20 Mayor McCarty explained that this is the time for residents to address the council with concerns on items 21 that are not on the Agenda. 22 23 Louise Borgert,7680 Knollwood,stated she would like to address the water main break which occurred 24 last week on Knollwood and resulted in damage to her basement. She stated she turned the claim in to the 25 City's insurance company,but was told that they are not responsible for any part of the damage that was 26 done. She noted that it took the city approximately 1-1/2 hours to respond to the call and she feels the 27 city should assume at least some of the responsibility. 28 29 Mr.Ulrich,Public Works Director, noted that he had prepared a short memo for the Council regarding this 30 problem. Staff was instructed to tell the resident,based on the League's response,that because the city 31 acted responsibly,they are not liable for the damages. He noted that there appears to be some problem 32 with the routing of the water due to the existing landscaping/topography of the back yard. In regard to the 33 city's response time,he explained that it did take staff a little longer to isolate the problem due to plugged 34 valve. 35 36 Mayor McCarty noted that it appears that the staff followed the appropriate procedures,but would like to 37 fmd out from the insurance company as to why they are denying the claim. He would recommend that 38 this be referred to staff for further information. After obtaining a staff report,Council will have more 39 details and will be better prepared to address this complaint. He noted that the city will keep her informed. 40 41 7.
