CI" OF SAN BERNARD. - REQU.T FOR COUNCIL ~N
STAFF REPORT
This liability claim is the result of a non-lnJury traffic
collision which occurred at the intersection of Mt. Vernon
Ave. and Mill St. on December 22, 1985 at about 1:24 p.m.
At the time that this accident occurred, a uniformed San
Bernardino Police officer was standing in the center of
the intersection directing traffic due to a large accum-
ulation of "cruiser" type traffic in the area. The signal
lights were operating on normal cycle and there were no
flare patterns being used. The officer directing traffic
directed the claimant into the path of an oncoming vehicle
resulting in a collision which caused approximately $6,500.00
damage to the claimant's 1985 Pontiac Fiero. The settlement
figure of $6,950.00 which is being recommended is to compen-
sate the claimant for the actual cost of his vehicle repairs
and approximately $200.00 for miscellaneous medical expenses.
