kl,R CITYOF RANCHO PALOS VERDES TO: HONORABLE MAYOR &CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS FROM: CARLA MORREALE, CIN CLERK DATE: JANUARY 19, 2016 SUBJECT: CLAIM AGAINST THE CITY BY INTERINSURANCE EXCHANGE OF THE AUTOMOBILE CLUB, AS SUBROGEE OF KERRY SCHIAPPA; CLAIM AGAINST THE CITY BY KERRY SCHIAPPA REVIEWED: DOUG WILLMORE, CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDATION Reject the claims and direct Staff to notify the Auto Club, as Subrogee of Kerry Schiappa and claimant. BACKGROUND On October 29, 2015, the City received a claim from the Interinsurance Exchange of the Automobile Club ("Auto Club"), as Subrogee of Kerry Schiappa. The Auto Club states in the claim that damage occurred to the claimant's vehicle on Montemalaga Drive between Silver Spur Road and Basswood Avenue when one of the City's trees "lost a branch that fell across the street from the house located at 5420 Montemalaga Drive. The tree branch fell directly in the path of the moving vehicle associated with this claim." The alleged incident occurred on July 3, 2015, at approximately 1:10 A.M. On January 4, 2016, the City received a separate claim from Kerry Schiappa for the incident that occurred on July 3, 2015, for damage to her vehicle, the $1,000 deductible, and the cost of renting a car while searching for a replacement vehicle. The City's Claims Administrator, Carl Warren and Company, has reviewed the two claims and advised the City to reject the claims, as the City received no prior notices or complaints regarding the condition of the tree.

Describe fully, and locate on diagram on Page 2. Where appropriate, give street names and address and measurements from landmarks: Damage occurred on Montemalaga Drive, RPV on the city street. This section of Montemalaga Drive between Silverspur and Basswood has a parkland area separating the opposing directions of traffic. On this parkland there are several trees. One of the City trees lost a branch that fell across the street from the house located at 5420 Montemalaga Drive. The tree branch fell directly in the path of the moving vehicle associated with this claim Describe in detail how the DAMAGE or INJURY occurred. City tree branch fell directly in front of the car. There was no option to miss the branch(es) as they crossed the entire width of the street and the timing for the branch dropping was precisely at the same time the car was passing the site. The branches hit the car at the left driver side, as well as the right hand side. Witnesses state that they had driven by the location 10 minutes earlier and saw no branch or indication of breaking branch at the site. Another witness heard the crack of the breaking branch from his bedroom (house is adjacent to the street). Witnesses indicated that there have been other falling branches in this same section of the road. Why do you claim the city is responsible? Upon inspection of the branches and tree, it is obvious that there was significant rot to the limb which caused it to be weak and break due to the weight. One of the branches was approximately 16 inches or more in diameter. As stated above, the tree in this case was clearly damaged. An inspection and pruning of the same tree would have prevented this incident. Based on the diameter of the branch, as seen in the attached photos, this could have resulted in serious injury or death if the branch had fallen directly on top of the car. There was zero wind factor at the time of the incident and during the prior 24 hours. There have been at least two other instances of fallen tree branches in the roadway in the past year. The trees in this section should be cut back and pruned to ensure that the rotted sections/branches are not a hazard to pedestrians or autos that pass by. This continues to pose a serious threat to life and property. As can be seen in the accompanying photos, there is obvious rot at the point where the branch was attached to the tree and the surrounding surface. As a prevention measure, the tree should have been inspected. Especially given the size of the branch overhanging the roadway. An inspection would ensure that the damaged tree branch was removed prior to this incident. Describe in detail each INJURY or DAMAGE. Significant damage to the vehicle body, airbag deployment and engine. Auto frame was damaged. Leaking oil, brake fluid and antifreeze indicate serious damage to the engine. The body was tweaked to the point that the back seat was out of position and unmovable. The front hood was unable to be opened. The car was a total loss. Additionally, I have had to rent a car while looking to replace this vehicle.

Highway Traffic Safety Admin (US) has issued a total of 3 recall bulletins that may apply to this vehicle. JkWL2@J= 04VO29 Date Issued 01/01/04 Quantity Affected 29,986 Dates Of Manufacture March - October 2003 Defect On certain passenger vehicles, the front control arms may not have been manufactured correctly and, as a result, the stud and nut that secure the arm to the spindle may lose their initial axial tension. Under certain driving conditions, the steering may become less responsive and the driver may experience steering wheel play. This driving condition could eventually lead to separation between the front control arm and the spindle, which could result in a crash. Remedy Dealers will install a new type of nut. The manufacturer has not yet provided NHTSA with an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552. NHTSA ID Number 07V226000 Date Issued 05/24/07 Quantity Affected 38,700 Defect On certain passenger vehicles, the fuel pressure sensor located on the left end of the fuel rail may, at times, transmit incorrect signal regarding the fuel pressure to the engine control module. If the signal is outside of the pre-programmed allowable limits, a diagnostic trouble code may be set and the check engine light will come on. The soldered joints on the circuit board of the fuel pressure sensor may crack due to temperature changes and excessive vibrations. Misfire may occur during driving that, in turn, will reduce the engine torque and in the worst case scenario, the engine may stall without warning. In certain traffic situations this could cause an unsafe situation and possibly a crash. Remedy Dealers will replace the fuel pressure sensor free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800- 458-1552. 09V483000 Date Issued 12/17/09 Quantity Affected 136,100 Defect Volvo is recalling certain model year 2001-2005 S80, model year 2001- 2004 V70, S60, XC70 and model year 2003-2005 XC90 vehicles sold in or registered in the states of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and the U.S. Territories. When exposed to certain environmental conditions (hot climate and temperature cycling) over time and in combination with varying fuel quality, the fuel pump can develop cracks in the fuel pump flange. If the condition occurs vehicle owners may notice fuel smell and/or fuel leak which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Remedy Dealers will inspect the fuel pump installed in the vehicle, and if necessary replace the fuel pump with a part of a modified design. This service will be performed free of charge.

NA Involved In INJURY or DAMAGE Where did DAMAGE or INJURY occur? Describe fully, and locate on diagram on Page 2. Where appropriate, give street names and address and measurements from landmarks: Damage occured on Montemalaga Drive, RPV. The tree that lost its limb is directly across from the house located at 5420 Montemalaga Drive. The tree is located in a city parkway that separates traffic in opposing directions. Describe in detail how the DAMAGE or INJURY occurred. The damage occurfed when a city tree branch fell directly in front of the car as it was in motion driving at the speed of approximately 33 MPH. There was no option to avoid the branches as they crossed the entire width of the street and the timing for the branch dropping was precisely at the same time the car was passing the site. The branches hit the car at the left driver side, as well as the right hand side. Witnesses, Mr./Mrs. Nick & Roya Kordani, stated that they drove by the location 10 minutes earlier (returning from a late dinner) and saw no branch or indication of breaking branch at the site. Another witness, Mr. Kevin Bradley, heard the crack of the breaking branch from his bedroom (house adjacent to the street). Damage to the automobile, VOLVO S60, was severe. The insurance company, AAA, rendered the vehicle a total loss. Why do you claim the city is responsible? Upon inspection of the branches and tree (see attached photos from just after the incident and the early morning with daylight), it is obvious that there was significant limb rot which caused it to be weak and break due to the weight. The primary branch was approx. 16 inches in diameter. In addtion, the condition of the wood appeared dried out. There was no wind factor the evening prior or at the time of the incident. The daytime temperature was 75 degrees. The city is responsible for maintaining the trees in a manner that would avoid serious damage and personal injury. If the tree limb had fallen a split second later, there could have been a fatality based on the size and weight of the limb. The city employee worked for quite a while to cut and move the branches wth the assistance of others onsite. The road was not cleared until after 4 AM. During that time, the road was closed to traffic by law enforcement. Describe in detail each INJURY or DAMAGE. Significant damage was sustained to the vehicle body, airbag deployment, engine, wheels and undercarriage. The car frame was twisted. There was a 6 -inch diameter branch of 3 feet in length lodged into the undercarriage. There appears to have been major damage to the front right wheel well with branch material lodged in the area and break fluid soaked into the asphalt. Antifreeze and oil also soaked into the asphalt under the engine compartment. The hood could not be opened due to damage and therefore was not inspected. See attached photos. The LA Sheriffs department was onsite but did not write a report because the incident was deemed not to be an accident (driver not at fault). There was no way to prevent the incident other than the city taking care of the damaged tree in advance.
