Powers ; Insurance.::'Authority..(CJPIA). :.Its;T primary -:
purpose As- to provide` 'liabi:city insurance :for :transit :..:
systems.
The City, presently. . is paying.. in.: excess' of $50,000' .for. lisbility'insuran 'e` .for:;':
our Dial -A -Ride system. If 'we . are approved for membership in- Ca1TIP-'we can
purchase coverage with a $O. self-insured'retention .at approximately. $30,000 and
a $25,000 self-insured retention at approximately $20,000.
The concept is much like the CJPIA in that we share losses based on our own
experience.
Since the inception of Dial -A -Ride we have had only one or two incidents which
resulted in claims.
I am quite comfortable in recommending our submission of an application for
membership. We have had an excellent history with our experiences in CJPIA.
The same care and consideration in allowing membership in Ca1TIP is in place as
with CJPIA.
I have taken the liberty of forwarding an application and we have been placed on
the agenda for the Ca1TIP Board of Directors' meeting on June 14, 1990, pending
Council approved.
Respectfully submitted,
Jerry L. Glenn
