Motion carries. Brent's comments Brent explained the problems with the original proposal for insurance for fireworks vendors. Each fireworks tent vendor was to provide $2,000,000 for each each occurrence and $3,000,000 Aggregate and the City be named additional insured. After review, the City Attorney and Brent talked with people in the insurance industry about the requirements originally set forth, and it appeazs the original regulations written and proposed were not exactly the way they should have been written, so the insurance broker talked to and gave some amounts recommending some high amounts so the amounts being recommended are $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 Aggregate and the city remain on the policy as well. Alderman Darata asked what type of calls the city has had. Brent said the calls were asking about the change in amounts and what this would do to their premiums. Brent explained, for example the aggregate limit was $3,000,000 and these policies being issued by wholesalers and have several tents all over the country. If one accident happens, it would take up all of the coverage and leave none for our city. Brent spoke with Joe DiGiovanni and he had no problem with the change and he talked with Barbaza Famuliner and she was concerned with the premium. Kurt Eckazd's comment Kurt Eckard, 5100 NW High Drive said he buys insurance through a wholesaler and deals with six tents. Kurt said his policy is $5,000,000 per occurrence and $6,000,000 Aggregate. Kurt said this is going to hurt a one owner operator, not the ones that own more than one tent. Kurt said he's been told the cost for this requested amount of insurance is $8,000.00. By just changing his name, it is an extremely high amount of money. Kurt pinks all of this can't be obtained in nineteen days when the applications aze due. Kurt said everyone has already got their insurance. City Attorney comments John McClelland, City Attorney said the change presented tonight makes the insurance cheaper and more available. The change is saying that each vendor must have their own policy, that they can't have these aggregate limits that aze cut into by other vendors. The change proposed tonight is the per occurrence 6 down to $1,000,000 and if they have more than one location, they do not need to have sepazate policy for each location. The numbers given by the broker talked to said the existing policies covering multiple vendors cost about $250.00 and the ordinance proposed tonight that the city is requiring for the amount of insurance proposed would cost about $3,500.00.
