Operating Fund From: Marc Marcantonio, General Account No: 1-7020-0690-30 Manager Presented By: Gina Knight, HR/Risk Manager Reviewed by Legal: N/A Prepared By: Amelia Cloonan, Human Resources Analyst Subject: Property Insurance Premium Renewal SUMMARY: The annual premium to renew property insurance through the Association of California Water Agencies/Joint Powers Insurance Authority (ACWA/JPIA) for the period April 1, 2015 through April 1, 2016 at a cost of $42,245 is submitted for consideration of payment. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Directors authorize payment in the amount of $42,245 to renew the District's property insurance coverage through ACWA/JPIA for the period April 1, 2015 through April 1, 2016. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: DISCUSSION: The District obtains property insurance through ACWA/JPIA. The District also obtains workers compensation and general liability insurance coverage through ACWA/JPIA and receives a multiple program discount of 5%. This year the discount was $2,223. Following six consecutive years of stable rates, the JPIA announced a reduction in rates charged to members of 10%. This reduction was approved by the JPIA Executive Committee. The District's adopted purchasing policy authorizes the General Manager to procure services identified in the budget in amounts not to exceed $25,000 with three written quotes. The payment for the annual insurance premium to ACWA/JPIA, while administrative in nature, falls outside the adopted purchasing policy since the premium exceeds the General Manager's authority, and the District does not receive three separate quotes. Board authorization is therefore needed to renew the policy and pay the annual insurance premium. The District's current property insurance policy will expire on March 31, 2015. District property covered under this insurance program includes buildings, personal property, fixed equipment, mobile equipment, licensed vehicles and certain catastrophic events. The District's buried reservoirs are not covered under the policy. Attached for the Board of Directors' review is a summary of the coverage: 1. The values for mobile equipment and licensed vehicles are computed on actual cash value basis. As these items depreciate, staff adjusts the values accordingly. 2. Mobile equipment includes backhoes and tractor/lawn mower with a deductible of $1,000 per occurrence. 3. Licensed vehicles covered include the sewer jet vactors, hydro excavator, dump trucks, portable pumps, portable generator and other large vehicles with a $500 deductible per occurrence. 4. The majority of the District's vehicles, such as sedans, pickup trucks and utility trucks are covered. 5. Buildings, fixed equipment and personal property have a deductible of $1,000 per occurrence. This year's invoice is based on values and items listed on the Schedule of Covered Property. Values for buildings and other structures have been increased by 3.28%. Fixed equipment values have been increased by 1.54%. Per the JPIA, these increases are based on the average increases in construction/acquisition costs as calculated by published indexes. PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S): Each year the Board of Directors is requested to approve the annual property insurance premium payment.

Dorey ,� Statement of Candidacy I have served on the ACWA/JPIA Board of Directors since 2007. During the last five years, I have had the privilege of serving on the Liability Committee of the JPIA. The Liability Committee has successfully kept its focus on providing member agencies with the most comprehensive, affordable and reliable liability insurance possible. Our Committee has recommended significant reductions in the premiums paid by member agencies while also increasing the insurance coverages provided. I was elected to the Vista Irrigation District Board of Directors in 2006. The District provides water service to over 120,000 residents in northern San Diego County. I served on the Board of Directors of the Groundwater Resources Association of California, and I currently serve on the Upper San Luis Rey Watershed Authority, the San Luis Rey Watershed Council and the Southern California Water Committee. My wife Nancy and I have lived in Vista since 1971, where we raised our two daughters. My forty-four years of public service, first in the United States Marine Corps and then in the water industry, have given me the necessary experience and background to serve as a member of the JPIA Executive Committee. This experience has helped me recognize the importance of safety and risk management and the value of developing appropriate policies and procedures, as well as establishing conservative fiscal controls. As a member of the JPIA's Executive Committee, I will perform my duties and make decisions to guide the organization to most efficiently benefit its member agencies. I will take my responsibility seriously and serve as a very useful and productive member of the Executive Committee. I value your trust and will honor it if elected to the Executive Committee.
