Discussion
According to our records, on February 2, 2001 at 6:54 a.m. MS. Sanford entered the
Locust Street parking ramp ming the Locust Street entrance. According to her statement
upon entering the ramp., the gate arm came down on here vehicle causing damage. The
maintenance department was contacted immediately and at 7:15 a.m. a roll pin in the gate
was observed as worn and subsequently was replaced.
Recommend
Based upon the above information I believe that the damage to Ms. Sanford's vehicle was
the result of a msWunction in the equipment and recommend that Ms. Sanford be
reimbum~d for damages.
