The settlement calls for a lump sum payment of $27x500 plus attorneys' fees of $2,700 and only medical expenses for back, neck, and groin injuries until the date of settlement. The ex -employee involved has numerous claims against the City dating back to 1984. In July of 1994, this individual filed a claim for alleged stress which was and continues to be controverted by the City. Given the date of original injury, this case falls under prior Workers Compensation law and represents a potential lifetime exposure of approximately $125,000 or more. - We believe this is an excellent settlement for the City and I would recommend your approval. n n Read Manager's Comments: Associated Information:G Budget Approval: I3o41- 7/04�ivo a06 OL'o �D6 Legal Approval Intrord For lm�� Passage First Reading Referral to Muni Ops 95-329 A zgaed to Gousam Soucy July 24, 1994 CITY OF BANGOR (TITLE.)
