Safety and Code
Councilor Krumm reported on the Safety and Code Committee. Regina Moore, Cost Recovery
Corporation, made a presentation to the committee about billing insurance companies for vehicle
crash reports. Ms. Moore explained the service her company provides. The handouts were
copied for all of council in their packets. There are different ways that this can be billed out
for example the type of crash and length of time an officer(s) takes to fill out the report. The
committee will need to determine if this program were adopted whether fees for crash reports
will only be charged for non-residents involved in accidents and not for in-town residents.
The committee was not ready to act on this matter. They will meet again and discuss.
