CITY MANAGE~
4/STHS VOTE: YES D NO ~
SUMMARY
The City's excess workers' compensation insurance pool, CSAC Excess Insurance Authority
(Authority), has determined that it is necessary for each member of the Authority to delegate to a
person(s) or position(s) authority to act on the member's behalf in matters relating to the member
and the Authority, except for those actions that must be approved by the member's governing
body. This resolution delegates that authority to the City Manager.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a
"Project" as defmed under Section 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it
involves only the delegation of authority to the City Manager in matters concerning the City's
excess workers' compensation insurance pool; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060( c )(3) of the
State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA.
RECOMMENDATION
Council adopt this resolution.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
8-1
Not Applicable
DISCUSSION
In October 2003, the City joined the Authority, a statewide member driven insurance pool
comprised of public entities, in order to secure more cost-effective excess workers'
compensation coverage than we could on our own. The City's Risk Manager, Teri Enos, is
currently an elected member of the Authority's Board of Directors.
The EIA is currently updating its records and has requested that each member entity's governing
body delegate authority to an individual or position to officially act on the member's behalf in
matters relating to the member and the Authority, except as to those actions that must be
approved by the governing body itself. This resolution will delegate that authority for the City's
matters to the City Manager.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site
specific and consequently the 500 foot rule found in the California Code of Regulations section
18704.2 (a)(l) is not applicable to this decision.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
None.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
None.
