City Manager Alan Lanning reported that no bids were received for the worker's compensation,building, and auto insurance. The City received bids from the SD Pool and from CHUBB Insurance on property insurance. The Pool submitted a proposal with the same coverage for $186,633. Chubb's bid was $184,812. His opinion was the selection of the property insurance carrier didn't require council action. His mandate by Council is that the City is adequately covered by insurance within budget. The current coverage with the SD Pool expires on December 31, 2004. He highlighted differences in coverage to include deductibles and business interruption coverage. He noted that the interruption coverage was not adequate to cover the hospital's needs and requested additional quotes. He didn't see a compelling need to change carriers if the pool could provide adequate coverage on business interruption. The premium is split between the City, Utilities and Hospital. The broker for the Chubb insurance is Howalt-McDowall from Sioux Falls. His intention was to stay with the SD Pool unless there was a compelling reason to change due to the Hospitai's coverage. If that occurred, he would visit with the Council on December 21, 2004. 3 � 0 Community Discrimination Survey. Dr. Geoffrey Grant, Human Rights Committee member, presented the findings of the Committee's coininunity survey. The purpose of the study was to measure discrimination in Brookings. He noted that discrimination are negative acts aimed at members of protected categories. The committee conducted a random sample survey of 1400 Brookings resident households with 527 surveys returned. The survey did �nd evidence of discrimination; however, the conclusion was that, for most, it wasn't a problem. Women experienced more discrimination than men and younger residents saw more discrimination than older residents. The committee will use the information to create a baseline to use as comparison for the future. Mayor's Council on Communitv Wellness Report.
