A measure passed through a city committee to pay a settlement to the family of Hayley Linville.

The 31-year-old was lying in an alleyway near 20th and Orchard when a police officer hit her. 

In a letter to the council, the city attorney said the family was demanding more than $21 million but proposed a $250,000 settlement. 

The settlement still needs to be approved by the full Common Council.
