    Shame on the city. This is one of your citizens, what s terrible way to treat her.

    I have to say I almost cried for her. The first story really touched me. I just cannot believe that a city has blanket immunity after one of their employees damages a private party property.
    I actually had left a comment on the first story. I was asking anyone who might know her or a close friend about starting a go me fund to pay for her car. Before writing this comment I went back and deleted my comment.
    I hope the gentleman and his painter start to have a lot more business for stepping up to help a stranger.

      I actually was tearing up. I was very touched by what they were doing for her. I was so angry after hearing the first story. I just cannot comprehend how the government can be exempt from their employees damaging the public property.

    That's really nice of them to do that for her. Shame on the city. Why do they automatically go to her not allowed to sue? Don't they have auto insurance like every other car on the road has to have? Why couldn't insurance take care of it? Sounds like if they are in a deadly accident while picking up garbage, they wouldn't be responsible for the death of another human being.

    Good ending. But the city is responsible and should be sued.

    Good on the Auto shop but the fundamental issue of sovereign immunity is still a problem.

    Voters can affect the city council.
    That's the only thing they can do to obtain accountability and responsibility from the city.

    What a lame City Council, to let Ms Grant hang on the vine. I’m more DISGUSTED that the Black members were apparently too self-involved.
    The “Imma gonna get mine,” is WORD in the community.
    That said, I appreciated the truck driver’s stepping up when his worthless City leaders took a powder.
