Summary

The Bend MPO policy board approved a motion authorizing the MPO manager to execute renewals of general and auto liability insurance for FY27 (retroactive approval) in an amount not to exceed $4,394.25; the approval was by voice vote during the July 17 meeting.

MPO staff told the policy board the MPO maintains annual general and auto liability insurance policies on a fiscal-year schedule and that staff had already procured coverage after quotes arrived too late for the June meeting. The board considered a retroactive authorization for the FY27 renewal.

A board member moved to authorize the MPO manager to approve the contract renewal in substantially the form presented and to take all steps necessary to acquire coverage not to exceed $4,394.25; another member seconded. The board approved the motion by voice vote. The chair announced the motion passed.

Staff said the renewal is expected to reduce the premium by roughly 10–11% after a review of coverages and that staff will continue to work with the city risk manager and the MPO’s insurance agent to identify possible cost savings.

The motion carried by voice vote; a formal roll-call tally was not recorded in the meeting transcript.
