DEROSE <br />CITYATTORNEY CHIEF ASSISTANT CPIYATTORNEY <br />November 7, 2000 <br />The Honorable Charlotte Pfeifer <br />President, South Bend Common Council <br />4th Floor, County-City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Re: Additional Appropriation from the Self-Insurance Fund <br />Dear President Pfeifer: <br />Attached for the Council's consideration is an ordinance appropriating from the Self- <br />Insurance Fund the additional sum of $150,000. The Legal Department's settlement of claims <br />and payment of judgments on behalf of the City is, by nature, imprecise and unpredictable. In <br />calendar year 2000 the City was assessed an unexpected judgment and presented with claims that <br />it had not anticipated. <br />Overall, the City's payment of claims in calendar year 2000 has been financially beneficial <br />to the City on a case-by-case basis, but our projections were skewed by an unexpected number of <br />high damage cases. <br />Thank you for your favorable consideration of this ordinance. <br />Sincerely, <br />GiC-/~ <br />John E. Broden <br />City Attorney <br />JEB/jl <br />Attachment <br />THOMAS L. BODNAR CHERYL A. GREENS <br />JEFFREY M. JANKOWSKI ROBERT C.
