RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1 Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing appropriations by
S 16,995 00 in the Property and Casualty Insurance Fund and decreasing the unreserved,
undesignated fund balance, and
2 Authorize the City Manager to transfer 516,995 00 from the Property and Casualty
Insurance Fund to the General Fund, and
3 Adopt the attached supplemental appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and
appropriation by 516,995 00 in the General Fund, for the Parks and Community Services
Department, from available funds
DISCUSSION
A claim payment from the Phoenix Assurance Company of New York, the insurer for the City's
fine arts coverage in fiscal year 1994-95, was received October 25, 1995, in the amount of
516,995 00 to cover the May 5, 1995 hail storm damage to insured outdoor art objects located
in the Japanese Garden of the Botanic Garden The insurance provided recovery on a
replacement cost/scheduled value for four (4) hail-damaged pagodas and lanterns and the
negotiated and agreed claim settlement allowed the City to retain the damaged objects
However, as the objects were gifts from the Fort Worth Botanic Society, it is staff's intention to
procure comparable new objects of like kind and quality to replace the damaged items, largely
with proceeds from the insurance company
