volunteers associated with the recreation programs, it will probably not cover Canadian Days <br />Volunteers given the independent nature of the organization and the lack of any substantial City <br />involvement in the festival operations. Canadian Days does carry Workers' Compensation with <br />the League and may be able to add this coverage to their policy. I have been in discussions with <br />the League on this issue and am expecting a response from them regarding coverage and cost <br />shortly (for Canadian Days separate coverage). <br />The cost to the City for the Accident Coverage would be approximately $1,000 with an <br />additional $450 for an optional medical coverage. The coverage provides a disability benefit, <br />death benefit and an impairment benefit, see page 2 of Exhibit B for details. The benefit <br />available is capped at $100,000. The City has at least 100 volunteers annually that are associated <br />with the recreation programs. Thus the cost of coverage would be equivalent to the cost of <br />coverage for Commissioners. Staff will update the council as to the League's response in <br />regards to Canadian Days and the merits of providing this coverage can be discussed at that time. <br />
