CORRESPONDENCE

The Board received a letter from Frank Shipski, 508 Palmer Ave, requesting reimbursement for water damage to his vehicle he believes was caused by a Village drain near his property.  Mr. Shipski claims the drain was not properly maintained causing water to back up into his property.  Supt Lozier stated there was no report the drain was ever plugged & it is properly maintained by the Village.  The Board agreed with advice from Atty Buettner that there was no liability to the Village.  Mayor Pasquarell will contact Mr. Shipski & Atty Buettner will follow up with a letter.

Marsha Towers, 310 Walnut St, wrote the Board requesting reimbursement for repairs made to her expansion tank resulting from the East National Water installation.  The Board will include the claim in the current litigation, Atty Buettner will send Ms. Towers a letter.
