Under the Cities and Towns Act, any person who intends to claim damages from the Town for a material loss shall, within 15 days from the date of the accident, give or cause to be given notice in writing to the clerk of the municipality of such intention, containing the particulars of his claim, and stating the place of his residence. If you fail to transmit such notice, your claim will unfortunately be considered legally inadmissible.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no written notice is required in order to claim for a bodily injury, although such notice is strongly recommended.
