Current <br />reinsurance and excess municipal liability is insured from $2M to $102M and includes auto liability <br />coverage. The City self insures and funds the first $IM of claim payments. BICEP covers the layer <br />from $1 M to $2M. <br />The City is permissively self-insured for workers' compensation and self-administers this <br />program as well. The City, through BICEP, purchases excess statutory coverage through the <br />California State Association of Counties - Excess Insurance Authority (CSAC-EIA) above $750K. <br />The City funds claim payments under $750K. <br />The City is also a member of the Public Entity Property Insurance Program (PEPIP).

Current property insurance is $IB per occurrence for "All <br />Risk" coverage and flood coverage is $82.5M or $50M based on the flood zone where our insured <br />property is-located. <br />If you need further assistance, I can be reached at (714) 647-5470, <br />Sincerely, <br />?44SA4T- <br />EDWARD S.
