Last year we did not waive the <br />limits, and neither did the City. The recommendation we have received from our insurance <br />agent is not to waive the limits. <br /> <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: <br />This limits our exposure to $500,000 rather than $2,000,000 for an individual claimant; and <br />$1,500,000 rather than $2,000,000 for all claimants of a single occurrence. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Resolution No. 20-3 - Electing Not to Waive the Statutory Tort Limits for Liability <br />Insurance <br /> LMCIT Liability Coverage Waiver Form <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />______________________________________________________________________________ <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />45 <br />
