ITEM E PLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES. N0~)
)n April 24, 1979 the City Council approved staff's recommendation to terminate
:he contract with R.L. Kautz and Company as the City's administrator of our
pelf-insured liability insurance account. As indicated at that time, we will
;ontinue with this firm as administrator of our worker's compensation account.
~taff is recommending the employrhent of Carl Warren and Company to serve the
ity beginning July 1, 1979. For the past several years this firm has special-
zed in handling claims involving governmental entities. They are experienced
nd well equipped to provide the City with competent claims investigation and
dministration services. The San Diego office handles the self-insured
ccounts for the cities of San Marcos, National City, Imperial Beach, E1 Centro,
nd a number of school districts.
heir fee for handling claims is based on an hourly rate. The contract calls
or an hourly rate of $17.50 and 25¢ per mile for travel. This appears to be
nder the current average hourly rate of $19 to $22 charged by other firms
he staff checked with. The annual cost to the City will depend entirely
n the number of claims handled and the complexity of each claim.
he contract also provides that the City will prepare its own monthly summary
f expenditures, reserves, and tatal losses incurred. This will save the City
$100 per month charge. The company has indicated an interest in contracting
ith the City to do their computer reports if the cost and type of reports
eets with the approval of their top management.
