SUBJECT: STEPHANIE MIPS VS. CITY OF WEST COVINA
SUMMARY: On August 19, 1998, the City Clerk's Office received a claim for bodily
injury and property damage amounting to $84.97.
The claimant alleges that her damages were caused when she slipped and fell on her
street while it was torn up for repaving.
After a thorough investigation and review of this matter, the City's Claims Administrator,
Colen and Lee, recommends denial.
As all claims should be considered potential lawsuits, it is requested that all
Councilmembers refrain from making specific public comments so as not to prejudice
any claim. Specific questions should be referred to the City Attorney.
RECOMMENDATION
That the claim of Stephanie Mips filed on August 19, 1998, be denied and the claimant be
so notified.
