A. A claim may be amended at any time before the expiration of the period designated in § 3.10.020 of this Subchapter or before final action thereon is taken by the City Council, whichever is later, provided that an amendment shall be permitted only if the claim, as amended, relates to the same transaction or occurrence which gave rise to the original claim. The amendment shall be considered a part of the original claim for all purposes.
B. A failure or refusal to amend a claim, whether or not notice of insufficiency is given under § 3.10.040 A. of this Subchapter, shall not constitute a defense to any action brought upon the cause of action for which the claim was presented if the Court finds that the claim as presented complied substantially with § 3.10.025 of this Subchapter.
