George Spofford, a lawyer Oldsmar hired to review the claims, said $1,992 is the amount the city can justify based on the paperwork provided by Kimmins. "Critical daily reports were missing," Spofford said. "They'd have three or four in a row and for a day you'd think they'd have one, for whatever reason, they didn't."

"We agree there is probably some responsibility on the part of the city, but we disagree with the amount of the so-called idle and down time," Schildhauer had commented on the claim.
