Hi Vivyon,
As we discussed, could you please forward water consumption/bills for the
months of August, September and October for the following customers:
Ricki Stanley

Tate Anderson

Ron Garber

Also, as far as I can tell all claims to date have been submitted through
the City. This should be the procedure for any further claims presented as
we (NAICO) are indemnifying the City based on the content of the contract
signed by our insured. Therefore, all claimants must comply with the
City's requirements for the filing of any claims.
Thanks for your help.
