Although the <br />actual cost to repair is not complete, the chassis appears to be repairable. <br />The body, which was empty at the time of the accident, was severely distorted, <br />and has been determined to be a total loss. <br />Repair costs for the chassis, and replacement cost for the body will be <br />completed by next Wednesday, in time for the Council meeting. <br />If you should have any questions, please advise. <br />JLH/lw <br />
