Summary
The Switzerland County Board of Commissioners voted March 2 to terminate its current insurance broker and appoint HUB International as the county's property and liability broker effective March 2, 2026; discussion referenced possible cost savings and broker-fee differences.
The Switzerland County Board of Commissioners voted March 2 to terminate the county's current insurance broker and appoint HUB International as the county's property and liability broker effective March 2, 2026. Commissioner Ryan Harrison moved the amended action and Commissioner Jamie Peters seconded; the motion passed unanimously.
The change came during old-business discussion about broker services. Ryan Secord discussed what HUB would offer the county and referenced a 20% reduction in costs from HUB; commissioners debated broker fees and current payments before taking formal action. An initial motion by Commissioner Harrison to switch property and liability to "Henriott" was made and seconded, then amended on the floor to terminate the current broker and designate HUB International as the broker effective March 2, 2026; the amended motion carried with all present commissioners voting in favor.
County Attorney Garrett Bascom and Auditor Gayle Sullivan participated in the discussion. The board did not record any amendment language beyond the effective date and did not provide a public breakdown of projected fee savings; commissioners directed staff to finalize paperwork and update contracts as necessary. The board took no further action on insurance rates or specific policy changes at the meeting.
The board adjourned at 6:28 p.m.; staff will follow up on contract termination and onboarding with HUB International.
