It has been determined that the City contracted with Vestar/Kimco Tustin for the construction work at the location where the damage to the Claimant's vehicle occurred. The Claim has been referred to Vestar/Kimco Tustin for review and handling, as the City is an additional insured on their general liability insurance policy.
