project(City Project No. 104059);and
4. Amend the Fiscal Year 2022 Adopted Budget.
DISCUSSION:
On May 2,2021,multiple City of Fort Worth(City)properties were damaged by hail. Damages are projected to be approximately
$2,300,000,000.00. Repair costs are covered by the City's commercial property insurance,subject to a$2,750,000.00 aggregate deductible.The
purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to reallocate certain appropriations for the purpose of funding repairs of damage to
City owned property that falls within the commercial insurance deductible.
Each year,funds are budgeted in the Risk Financing Fund to pay for incurred expenditures that fall within the policy deductible for property damage
claims covered by the City's commercial insurance. The deductible for wind and hail is$2,750,000.00 in the aggregate;meaning that wind and
hail damages in a single policy year must meet the full deductible prior to any commercial insurance reimbursement.
There was a single hail event in 2021. The estimation of repair cost is approximately$2,300,000.00 which fall within the wind/hail
deductible. Upon completion of repairs,the City will make payment for repairs on multiple City properties based on actual repair cost.
The action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Year 2022 Adopted Budget as approved in connection with Ordinance 25073-09-2021,Section 5.
