RE: Claim Against City of Saint Paul
File Number C-110333
Dear Mr. Abdi:
As I had told you earlier, your vehicle is a constructive total loss, meaning that the cost to
repair the vehicle is more than the value of the vehicle. While you state that you believe
your vehicle is worth $8,000, I am enclosing the valuations obtained from the internet that
support the valuation of $2,783.00 for your vehicle.
Since you went through your insurance carrier for a rental vehicle, I am reimbursing your
carrier for that cost directly. You are also entitled to the full proceeds from the sale of
your vehicle at the salvage yard, if you have not already sold the vehicle.
Enclosed you will find a release for the amount of $2,783.00 regarding your claim against
the City of Saint Paul. You should sign the release before a notary public and two
witnesses, and return it to my office.
Upon receipt of said release, I will request that payment be made. It will take
approximatety five to ten days after I receive your signed release for the City to issue a
check directly to you.

Sincerely,
� , Z���
