RESOLUTION NO. RS2003-1471


A resolution accepting $8,471.36 in compromise and settlement of the Metropolitan Government's claim against Edna Grimsley.

Whereas, on February 4, 2002, Edna Grimsley was responsible for a vehicular accident that caused injuries to Officer Kimberly Forsythe, an employee of the Police Department of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, resulting in medical expenses and sick leave wages paid by The Metropolitan Government; and

Whereas, after investigation, the Department of Law believes that the settlement listed in Section 1 is fair and reasonable, and recommends that the claim be compromised and settled in the amount of $8,471.36 and that these funds be deposited into the appropriate fund and account as determined by the Department of Finance.

Now, therefore, be it resolved by the Council of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County:

Section 1: The Metropolitan Department of Law is authorized to accept the amount of $8,471.36 in compromise and settlement of its claim against Edna Grimsley.

Section 2: This resolution shall take effect from and after its adoption, the welfare of The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County requiring it.
