Persons Desiring to be Heard
Trustee
Askew expressed his displeasure of how his claim for the culvert repair was
handled administratively. He stated that
the claim was not presented to an insurance committee and that the Village
Manager stated he would take care of his situation if a request was made in
writing. The Village Manager responded
that Trustee Askew was informed that the matter would be reviewed and addressed
if the request was made in writing. As
far as the Manager was concerned, Mr. Askew’s concerns were addressed but not
to his satisfaction. Trustee Askew then

submitted to CVMIC for their review.
According to the Village’s policy, the claim was to be administered by
Village staff and not eligible for consideration by the Finance and Public

informed of the denial of the claim in writing along with his possible recourse
as allowed under Wisconsin Statutes.
