A resolution accepting $5,413.53 in compromise and settlement of the Metropolitan Government's claim against the State of Tennessee, Department of Transportation.

Whereas, on June 15, 1999, the State of Tennessee, Department of Transportation, was responsible for a vehicular accident when its employee, Ron Reed, caused damage to a parked vehicle owned by the Metropolitan Government assigned to Warrant Officer Johnny Lockett, an employee of the Juvenile Court of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County; and
