Staff work with our insurance agent annually to prepare the materials for the renewal This generally includes updating data on improvements and staffing costs LMCIT hires appraisers to give values for the more expensive structures like city halls. Staff asked for information we could share with the Council and LMCIT staff provided the following document explaining how the Insurance Trust came to be. They also said LMCIT's director would be happy to present at a future meeting if invited. A media report recently brought to light questions about LMCIT's liability coverage regard- ing police departments. There is a memo that explains this at: https://www.lmc.org/wp- content/uploads/documents/Police-Department-Management-and-Liability-Issues.pdf. As a city covered by a police contract, the liability does not fall to us but to St Anthony. Of importance to the City are the liability limits. Included in the packet are the relevant pag- es on the topic taken from a laigei document on municipal liability coverage available at https://www.lmc org/wp-content/uploads/documents/LMCIT-Liability-Coverage-Guide.pdf. Annually, the City Council must determine whether or not to waive the municipal tort liabil- ity limits established by statute. The City has not waived them in the past as it opens the City to greater financial liability. Staff recommends maintaining that practice via the fol- lowing motion.

Until 1974, it was a part of the University of Minnesota's Extension Division. The League then became an independent organization. It provides a variety of services to its 836 member cities, including advocacy, research, and educational programs and materials. While the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust is related to the League, it operates as an independent organization, with its own governance and administration. In the 1970s and 1980s, cities and other local governments across the country (counties and school boards, for example) faced significant difficulty in finding insurance in the private market. In some cases, it was completely unavailable. In others it was prohibitively expensive or provided very limited coverage. This led to the creation of governmental self-insurance pools in many states, and it's estimated there are currently more than 500 of these pools in the United States. Minnesota's pool arose from 1980 legislation that gave local government entities the authority to create self- insurance pools. The Insurance Trust is one example. We are owned by our members and overseen by a Board of Trustees consisting of appointed and elected city officials, as well as the Executive Director of the League of Minnesota Cities. We are governed by most of the same laws that apply to our member cities, including the Open Meeting Law, the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, and the state laws regulating investment of public funds, among others. In addition, we undergo annual audits. We provide property, liability, auto, and workers' compensation to our member cities and other local government entities, such as housing and redevelopment authorities, joint powers organizations, watershed districts, and others. While most Minnesota cities belong to our programs, membership is voluntary and a handful instead buy insurance in the private market or self -insure, including Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Duluth. Although there have been times since our creation where private insurance has been more widely available to cities, pools like ours have consistently retained membership throughout these cycles for a number of reasons. First, we focus on maintaining Tong -term premium rate stability, which is important for governmental budgeting. Second, we provide coverage specifically designed to meet the unique needs of local governments and the residents they serve. Third, our member -owned structure has allowed the Trust to return $338 million in dividends to our members since our inception. Finally, to promote safety and minimize costly claims, we offer a broad range of loss control services covering areas such as cyber consulting, mental health first aid, land use regulation, occupational and safety health standards, and much more. The Trust is a self-insured membership cooperative. It was created by Minnesota cities for Minnesota cities, and exists solely to serve its members. The Trust's fundamental purpose is to cover city risks and to mitigate hazards, not show a profit for stakeholders. 4 OValues Provide superior coverage. Help members control losses.

We employ experienced staff with expertise in the various types of claims commonly seen by cities, fully investigate each claim, and ultimately make claim decisions based on our findings. Throughout the process, the Trust works closely with our members. Our goal is to reach a mutual understanding on how an individual matter will be resolved, recognizing some claims present our members with both financial and policy implications.

Liability Property Work Comp Premiums Premiums for property coverage are largely based on the estimated replacement cost of member property. The Trust's rating system for calculating liability premiums is designed to allocate costs based on the sources of claims. It's based on five considerations that measure the most common types of claims: number of households (zoning and land use claims); number of sewer connections (sewer backup claims); number of city employees (employment claims); number of police officers (police liability claims); and overall city expenditures (all other risks). Workers' compensation premiums are generally based on the number and job classifications of the member's employees. The liability and workers' compensation premiums are also affected by the member's individual experience. This helps further align premiums and claims.

Risks for which specialty coverage is needed • Aircrafts (a drone is not considered an "aircraft" if it's not designed for the transport of persons or property). • Architects. • Big boats. • Doctors, most nurses, dentists, pharmacists, and psychologists. • Liquor sales. • Motorized amusement rides, such as carnival rides. • Motor vehicle demolition derbies, racing, pulling contests, or stunt driving. • Prisons. • Railroads. • Rodeos. • Specialty type operations such as hospitals, clinics, nursing homes and licensed child care programs. • Stunting activities or events that involve a significant risk of serious injury to the participant, performer, or others, such as high -wire acts, base or bungee jumping, skydiving, circus type acts, and acts involving dangerous animals. D. Coverage limits The Trust gives members options for structuring their liability coverage. Members can also choose either to waive or not to waive the monetary tort caps the statutes provide. It can also select from among several liability coverage limits. 1. LMCIT primary liability limits The statutory municipal tort liability is limited to a maximum of $500,000 per claimant and $1.5 million per occurrence. These limits apply whether the claim is against the member, against an individual officer or employee, or against both. The Trust's liability coverage provides a standard limit of $2 million per occurrence because there are some types of liability claims that aren't subject to the statutory tort caps and it's common to see contracts require more than the statutory limit. A more common figure is $2 million. The Trust's higher limit meets this requirement, but if even higher limits are required, there is the option to carry the Trust's excess liability coverage or in some cases the Trust can issue an endorsement to increase the member's coverage limit only for claims relating to a particular contract. In addition to the coverage limit of $2 million per occurrence, there are annual aggregate limits, or limits on the total amount of coverage for the year regardless of the number of claims. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: LMCIT Liability Coverage Guide 11/15/2020 Page 4 RELEVANT LINKS: See Section III.B, Data security breach and computer-related risks. See Section III.J, Land use and special risk litigation. See Section III.D, Employees' activities in outside organizations. Minn. Stat. § 466.04. See Sunnnury of LA1CIT Liability Coverage Options and the effects of choosing the various coverage structure options. A $3 million annual aggregate applies for the following: • Products. • Failure to supply utilities (water, electricity, gas, steam service, and phone and internet or other electronic data transmission services). • Data security breaches (a $250,000 sublirnit, which is part of and not in addition to the $3 million aggregate, applies for Payment Card Industry fines, penalties, and assessments; and data security breach regulatory fines and penalties resulting from a data security breach claim). • Electromagnetic fields. • Limited contamination (sudden and accidental release of pollutants; herbicide and pesticide applications; sewer ruptures, overflows, and backups; lead and asbestos claims; mold claims; hostile fire claims; and excavation and dredging claims, which are also subject to an annual $250,000 sublirnit). • Sexual abuse and molestation claims. Other annual aggregate limits apply for the following: • $1 million annual aggregate for land use and special risk litigation. This coverage is provided on a sliding scale percentage basis. • $100,000 annual aggregate for employees' activities in outside organizations. • $250,000 annual aggregate for organic pathogen claims (this limit applies whether claims are made under municipal liability, auto liability, or both). 2. Statutory liability limits The statutory municipal tort cap is limited to a maximum of $500,000 per claimant and $1.5 million per occurrence. These limits apply whether the claim is against the member, against the individual officer or employee, or against both. The Trust's liability coverage provides a standard limit of $2 million per occurrence. At the member's coverage renewal each year, it must decide whether to waive or not waive the statutory limits. There is no right or wrong answer, and it's a discretionary decision each governing body must make. a. Waiving the statutory limit Members who waive the statutory limits are waiving the protection of the statutory limits, up to the amount of coverage the member has. A claimant could recover up to the Trust's standard limit of $2 million, rather than the statutory limit of $500,000 per claimant. Because the waiver increases the exposure, the premium is higher for coverage under the waiver option. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: LMCIT Liability Coverage Guide 11/15/2020 Page 5 RELEVANT LINKS: See Section II.D.3, Purchasing higher• liability ll rrl its. See Section II.D.3.a, Statutory limits nay not apply. Minn. Stat. § 3.736. 42 U.S. Code § 1983. A member- may choose to pay more in premium for the waiver option because the statutory liability lirnit only applies in cases where the member is in fact liable and the injured party's actual proven damages are greater than the statutory limit. Some cities may want more assets available to compensate their citizens for injuries caused by the member's negligence. In those cases where the member waives the statutory limit, but also purchases the Trust's excess liability coverage, a claimant could potentially recover more. If, for example, the member has $1 million of excess coverage and chooses to waive the statutory tort caps, the claimant or claimants could recover up to $3 million in damages in a single occurrence. The cost of the excess liability coverage is higher if the member waives the statutory tort caps. The cost difference is proportionally greater than the cost difference at the primary level because for a member that carries excess coverage, waiving the statutory tort caps increases both the per claimant exposure and the per occurrence exposure. b. Not waiving the statutory limit For members who choose not to waive the statutory limits, the member's liability is limited by the statute to no more than $500,000 per claimant and $1.5 million per occurrence. The Trust's higher coverage limits would only apply to those types of claims that aren't covered by the statutory lirnit. 3. Purchasing higher liability limits The Trust makes available the option of carrying higher coverage limits than the basic limit of $2 million per occurrence. The Trust's excess liability coverage is available in $1 million increments up to a maximum of $5 million. There are several reasons why cities may consider carrying the excess liability coverage. a. Statutory limits may not apply The statutory tort caps do not or may not apply for the following types of claims: • Claims under federal civil rights laws, including Section 1983, the Americans with Disabilities Act. • Claims for tort liability the member has assumed by contract, which occurs when a member agrees in contract to defend and indemnify a private party. • Claims for actions in another state, which may occur in border cities that have mutual aid agreements with adjoining states or when a member official attends a national conference. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: LMCIT Liability Coverage Guide 11/15/2020 Page 6 RELEVANT LINKS: 42 U.S. Code § 1983. See Section ILD, Coverage 11111115. • Claims based on liquor sales, which mostly affects cities with municipal liquor stores, but it could also relate to beer sales at a fire relief association fundraiser, for example. • Claims based on a "taking" theory, which are suits challenging land use regulations frequently include an "inverse condemnation" claim, alleging the regulation amounts to a "taking" of the property. b. Annual limits apply for specific risks Besides the Trust's overall coverage limit of $2 million per occurrence, there are annual aggregate limits for certain risks. If the member- has a loss or claim in one of these areas, there might not be enough limits retraining to cover the member's full exposure if there is another similar loss during the year. There are, however, a couple important restrictions on how the excess coverage applies to risks that are subject to aggregate limits. The excess coverage does not apply to the following: • Failure to supply utilities. • Mold. • Lead and asbestos. • Excavation and dredging. • Sudden and accidental release of pollutants below ground or within or on the surface of any body of water. • Auto no-fault claims. • Uninsured/underinsured motorist claims. • Workers' compensation, disability, or unemployment claims. • Claims under medical payments coverage. • Claims arising from the activities of outside organizations. • No-fault sewer backup. • Liquor liability, unless the member has specifically requested it. c. Contracts may require higher coverage limits A contract might include a requirement the member carry more than $2 million per occurrence in coverage limits. Carrying excess coverage is a way to meet these requirements. Members can also request an endorsement to increase the member's coverage limit only for claims relating to that contract. d. Multiple political subdivisions There may be more than one political subdivision covered under the member's coverage, like an HRA, EDA, or port authority; or the member has agreed by contract to defend and indemnify or name another entity as a covered party. League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: LMCIT Liability Coverage Guide 11/15/2020 Page 7 RELEVANT LINKS: See Section 1II.I, Joint powers entities and Section III.Q, Separate city boards and comnussions. See Section I1.D.3, Purchasing higher liability limits. In this case, a claimant may be able to recover amounts from both the member and the other entity Kxcess coverage is one way to provide enough coverage limits. Another solution is for the HRA, EDA, or port authority to carry separate liability coverage in its own name. III. Coverage details on specific liability exposures The Trust's liability coverage is broad, but there are some situations where the member needs to take additional action or be aware of special coverage terms. A. Airports The Trust can provide airport liability coverage to members of the property/casualty program. Coverage is available for airports that are operated by a city, by anoint powers entity that includes at least one city, or by a special purpose district. Coverage is available for most municipal airports. Largei airports that have scheduled service are not eligible. 1. Coverage limits The airport liability coverage is very broad and carries a per occurrence limit of $2 million and an annual aggregate limit of $3 million. It is subject to the same deductibles that apply to a member's municipal liability coverage. Higher limits can be provided through the Trust's optional excess liability coverage, although it is not available as an option for airport risks only 2 Coverage terms Cities or joint powers entities that choose the Trust's airport coverage option are provided coverage under the city's existing Trust liability coverage document. It is provided under an endorsement that modifies the airport exclusion in the basic municipal liability coverage document. Since the airport liability exposure is wrapped under the basic Tiust liability coverage document, the coverage for liability related to airport operations is extremely broad. It is specifically designed to address several important airport exposures, including: • Damage to an aircraft that s in the city's care, custody, and control; or what is commonly referred to as hangar keeper's liability. • Products liability coverage for city fiieling operations. • Claims relating to things like noise and vibration. • Hxposures related to errors and omissions such as employment liability and liability for damages other than bodily injury, personal injury or property damage League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: 11/15/2020 LMCIT Liability Coverage Guide Page 8 LoJ LMC LEAGUEMINNESOTA CITIES LIABILITY COVERAGE - WAIVER FORM Members who obtain liability coverage through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT) must complete and return this form to LMCIT before the member's effective date of coverage. Return completed form to your underwriter or email to pstech(a,lmc.org. The decision to waive or not waive the statutory tort limits must be made annually by the member's governing body, in consultation with its attorney if necessary. Members who obtain liability coverage from LMCIT must decide whether to waive the statutory tort liability limits to the extent of the coverage purchased. The decision has the following effects: • If the member does not waive the statutoi y tort limits, an individual claimant could recover no more than $500,000 on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would be limited to $1,500,000. These statutory tort limits would apply regardless of whether the member purchases the optional LMCIT excess liability coverage. • If the member waives the statutoiy tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a single claimant could recover up to $2,000,000 for a single occurrence (under the waive option, the tort cap liability limits are only waived to the extent of the member's liability coverage limits, and the LMCIT per occurrence limit is $2,000,000). The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would also be limited to $2,000,000, regardless of the number of claimants. • If the member waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single claimant could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the number of claimants. Claims to which the statutory municipal tort limits do not apply are not affected by this decision.
