ITEM TITLE: 2nd Quarter 2014 Claim Report and resolution authorizing
and approving 2nd Quarter 2014 claims activity
SUBMITTED BY: Helen A. Harvey, Senior Assistant City Attorney
Cindy Epperson, Budget & Finance Director
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The purpose of this report is to provide information on claims that were closed during the 2nd
Quarter 2014. Most claims listed in this report were resolved and settled pursuant to the City
Council's annual Resolution authorizing the City Manager to settle claims against or by the City
in an amount of $100,000 or less. Resolution 2013-137 was adopted on November 5, 2013.
The payment amounts listed on the CIAW report show the amount paid by the City of Yakima
toward the settlement within the City's $100,000 or $99,000 insurance deductible. On two
related cases, the City's insurance company paid an additional amount above the City's
deductible of $100,000. The City Council approved the settlement in Duenas, Special
Administrator of the Estate of Pasqual Ayala v. City of Yakima and Shaun C. Kollman by
Resolution R-2014-020 on February 4, 2014, and approved the settlement in Valencia,
Administrator of the Estate of Marina Barajas, et al. v. City of Yakima and Shaun Kollman by
Resolution R-2013-113 on August 20, 2013. The entire amount of each settlement was paid by
the City's insurance carrier, and the City paid no money toward either settlement.
The report includes information for the second quarter 2014: (1) CIAW claim summary by type
of claim; (2) CIAW claim summary by department; (3) CIAW closed claims for the 2nd Quarter
2014; and (4) WSTIP closed claims for the 2nd Quarter 2014. Adopting the attached claims
resolution affirms and ratifies the payments made by the City of Yakima on claims closed during
the 2nd quarter of 2014 as listed in the reports.

Council, the City Manager is authorized to settle claims against or by the City in an amount of

disposition of the various claims submitted to the City of Yakima with the amount on the CIAW

$100,000 insurance deductible, or within the City's $99,000 insurance deductible for claims
covered by insurance policy periods from September 1, 2010 to September 1, 2012, and does
not include the insurance company's contribution to the settlement, if any; now, therefore,
