6. Numerous claims have been filed against the city for incidents attributed to several of its departments. Discussions with city attorneys who have been handling the cases indicate that the city could ultimately pay out $1,850,000 in judgments or settlements, an increase of $100,000 over last year's estimate.
As of December 31, settlements amounting to $35,000 were reached with two claimants. They will be paid in January.
7. The city operates a Pension Trust Fund to pay employee benefits. The plan has assets sufficient to pay for 85 percent of its long-term pension obligations. The city actuary recommended that the city contribute $950,000 to the Trust Fund in 2022.
However, the city council appropriated only $300,000. That amount was paid to the Trust Fund in October, and the council made no further appropriation for the year.
8. The city Health Department has a state grant that must be used for a specific purpose, but there are no requirements as to when the grant resources may be used. At December 31,2022, the unspent balance of the grant was $54,000.
