Chief Pilot Al Smith and Police Observer T. C. Key were on a police patrol flight investigating what may have been a stolen vehicle in a field west- of. the Woodridge Apartments. Following takeoff to the North, the helicopter dropped some ten (10) feet to the ground. Damage was to the mast area and landing gear. Repairs were completed within one (1) month of the accident, keeping out-of-service days to a minimum. Helicopter damage expenses total $32,330.82 Helicopter Services has an excellent safety record. There have been no injuries nor accidents in over 30,000 hours of flying time since service began in 1968. The only previously recorded loss was for $3,000 in damages in 1980 when a gusty wind tilted the helicopter while it was on the ground. Financing The City self-insures the aircraft to cover the physical damage exposure. $20,000 is budgeted annually from the General Fund into Fund 71, the Insurance Fund, where sufficient funds are available in index Code 396143. Recommendations It is recommended that the City Council 1) Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance which transfers $32,330.82 from Fund 71 (the Insurance Fund) to General Fund Account No. 90-60-00 (Helicopter Services), and thereby increase the revenues of Account No. 90-60-UO by $32,330.82, and 2) Approve the expenditure of $32,330.82 from Account No. 90-60-00 for the above-described helicopter repairs.
