LAKE, BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS ALDERMAN TAD PUTRICH, CHAIRMAN FIRE STATION AND DEPOT ROOF REPAIRS FROM HAIL STORM Attorney Lane said that the City was made aware that the fire station and the depot had additional hail damage after the initial claim was filed. City Clerk Diana Pavley Rock is working with the contractor and the insurance company to try to get resolved. The City had coverage with MICA insurance group during the hail storm in April 2017, but then the City switched insurance companies in May 2017. The old insurance company would still be responsible to cover the claim, but they are claiming they do not see damage based upon the photos sent in. Photos were sent to the insurance company and an inspection was performed by Holthous Roofing. Holthous Roofing is stating that both of the roofs sustained damage from the hail storm. Attorney Lane sent a letter to the insurance company explaining that we disagree with their comment that they do not see damage and that we want to appeal their internal decision. Some of the companies we use are not wanting to put the time into meeting with the adjuster or doing any additional work in putting quotes together if they are not going to get the work. The City can't guarantee that the work will be going to any specific contractor. Attorney Lane said that the City is looking at contractors to come out to look at the damage. Attorney Lane and City Clerk Pavley Rock will continue to work together to get this resolved. MAYOR COMMUNICATION A boil order is beginning this Thursday until further notice from boat dock road, del bar, north shore and the campground. The City has a major break in one of the lines at the water department. The city is currently working on fixing the problem. The water may be off for 4-5 hours in this area.
