MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 8, 198
Gary Cotterill and Robert Dempsey were present to further discuss their
insurance proposals with the Board.
Gary Cotterill
® Gary asked if everything stands as it did before. Teresa replied that Bob
has changed -- Employees are insured in Bob's. Bob quoted one million per
claim and one million agg;egate.for $8,236.20. Bob has changed to one million
® per claim and two million aggregate for $9,417.24 for a total proposal figure
of $41, 967.4+.
Gary said quotes are basically the same. Bob has changed numbers -- why
didn't he change Monday night? We are about $350 difference now ($42,000 -
Bob and $43,332 - Gary). Board felt Town should come up with lowest bid.
Gary offered to provide package for $40,000 as of today -- no fat, will eat
commission, same coverage. There is no aggregate with Gary's liability.
Two million aggregate is not so good. Gary's one million in coverage is
per accident with no limit. Bob has two million per year which is a big
difference if something should happen. Gary pointed out that Public
Officials has an exclusion that does not cover inadequate insurance coverage.

Supervisor said Bob Dempsey would like to talk with Board again. Bob
indicated he has changed his quote of one million aggregate to two million
aggregate for a total quote of $41,967.44. Bob explained what his proposal
covered. The difference in the two quotes is $1,967.44. Bob said he could
not go any lower without giving up his commission.
Board members discussed -two proposals. Consensus was that the Town should
have per occurrence policy and go with low quote which saves the Town
almost $20000009
