Title:

Report From Finance Committee of February 22, 2011

Background:

Two cases were presented to the Finance Committee:
 
Case #1 Consider Contract for Agent of Record for Property, Casualty, and Workers Compensation Insurance.
 
Staff reviewed that the city has been contracting with Bearence Management Group (formerly T.C. Field & Company) since 1997 for agent of record services for property, casualty, and workers compensation insurance.  The city is currently paying $5,800 for these services.  Staff discussed the proposed two-year contract with the city's agent asking for $6,000 in 2012 and $6,200 in 2013.  In comparison, neighboring cities are paying from $10,000 to $24,000 for the same services.
 
The Finance Committee made the recommendation that the City Council authorize the agent of records contract for two years in the amounts of $6,000 for 2012 and $6,200 in 2013.
 
Case #2  Credit Card Analysis
 
Staff reviewed the credit card process and respective fees involved.  The Finance Committee was in agreement to bring forward to a later worksession for discussion with the entire council.  A worksession on credit cards with eligible vendors and the city's utility billing company has been scheduled for March 22, 2011.
