Acquaro, Human Resources Director <br /> <br />September 28, 2006 <br /> <br />Property, Casualty, Auto, Workers Comp Insurance Renewals <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br /> <br />It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution to renew the City's <br />Property, Casualty, Auto, and Workers Compensation insurance with the Preferred Government <br />Insurance Trust (pGIT). <br /> <br />BACKGROUND: <br /> <br />The City currently has Conunercial Insurance Package (property, Casualty, Auto) and Workers Compensation <br />insurance through PGIT which is a premier insurance organization for public entities and is a non-assessable <br />Trust approved by the Florida State Legislature. The PGIT board of trustees has elected to purchase an <br />extremely conservative excess of loss insurance structure which provides PGIT members several levels of <br />protection that reinsurance does not. PGIT's excess of loss policies list every individual member a named <br />insured, giving every member direct access to the insurance company for payment of claims. <br /> <br />Public Risk Underwriters (PRU), which is a premier insurance service organization for public entities and is <br />part of Brown & Brown, is the underwriting group that tailors customized insurance services and products <br />for the City. <br /> <br />The City has had a Conunercial Package Policy (property, Casualty, Auto) and Workers Compensation <br />insurance coverage with PGIT since October 1, 2003. Previous to this date, from July 1, 2001 through <br />October 1, 2003, insurance coverage was split between First Specialty Insurance for Property and Coregis <br />Insurance for General Liability coverage and with the Florida League of Cities for Workers Compensation. <br /> <br />Agenda Item 3 A <br />Date cr - 2- 8 - 0 ~ <br />
