PROPERTY DAMAGE
After the completion of the TARGA Stage, either the Stage Director or a nominated official will usually drive the Stage and carefully observe any damage to public or private property, or equipment.
Even where no damage has been done, but it is evident a vehicle has left the road, the 'Report of Damage to Property' form is to be used.
Information to be given to the landowner if possible. If the land owner can and wants to fix the damage himself a quote to repair the damage is required from the landowner before any work can commence. Ask the landowner to contact the Clerk of the Course with the quote (Hamish Marquis 0419 349 656). If the landowner cannot or is unable to fix the damage, TARGA will organise for the damage to be fixed. TARGA will pay the land owner directly to fix the damage.
- If damage is caused to any public property (i.e. fence, guard rails, sign posts, trees, gardens or buildings) officials should fill in the 'Report of Damage to Property' form (please see attached below) and send a photo immediately to Command Centre AND phone through to Clerk of the Course. Keep the hard copy in your paperwork and return to the warehouse at completion of the Event.
- If damage is caused to any private property, fill in the same form as above. It is important that accurate details of damage are recorded:
- Distance from the start line - or from an identifiable point e.g. road junction.
- Type of damage.
- Extent of damage.
- Full name of property owner, phone numbers or RSD number.
- Vehicle number, make and colour that caused the damage.
Even where no damage has been done, but it is evident a vehicle has left the road, the 'Report of Damage to Property' form is to be used.
