MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 2006
TO: WilLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: RONALD A. NAULT, FINANCE DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF CLAIM OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON,
CLAIM NO. 06-23
SUMMARY:
The Claimant has reported damage to its existing underground structures which was caused by
heavy equipment used by a Contractor that the City of Tustin hired to install underground drainage,
sewer and roadway sections. The claim is for an estimated amount of $4,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council deny Claim Number 06-23, Southern California Edison, and direct Staff to
send notice thereof to the Claimant.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
DISCUSSION:
The City's Claims Administrator has verified that FCI Constructors, Inc. was working under contract
with the City on the above project. This company was apparently operating the digging equipment
that damaged the Claimant's underground facilities. On the basis of the indemnification clause in
their contract agreement with the City, and as the City of Tustin is a named additional insured under
the Contractor's general liability policy, this claim has been tendered to FCI Constructors, Inc.
