Speaker 0: Vice mayor, members of the council. Thank you. This this item before you this evening will increase the authority for the city attorney's office to resolve matters from $5000 to $50000 to any single person, firm or corporation. It will make it consistent with the city attorney's current authority for matters involving worker's compensation. The $5,000 limit has been in place since 1970, and we believe in working with the EDI and F committee that we will be providing them semiannual reports on any and all settlements that our office uses under this authority. So I ask for your consideration and support of this item.
