RE:
Claim of Eddie Santana; Claim No. 96-37
NO. 18
10-7-96
RECOMMENDATION:
After review and investigation by the City's claims administrators, it is recommended
that the City Council deny the claim and direct the City Clerk to provide notice to the
claimant and to the claimant's attorneys.
DISCUSSION'
This claim is for $123, stemming from 3 citations issued to Mr. Santana for parking
on a City street between certain hours when no parking was posted for street cleaning.
This is a violation of Tustin City Code Section 5330(d)(7). Mr. Santana alleges that
because he is a disabled individual with a handicap license, this allows him to be exempt
from this ordinance. However, there is no such exemption. This is not a case of likely City
liability.
