PLAN JPA is a joint powers authority composed of public agencies that collectively fund and administer liability claims on behalf of its members. Under this program, coverage for third-party claims arising out of the City of Dublin’s general operations, including commercial general liability and automobile liability, is provided through Memoranda of Coverage. The City of Dublin maintains primary general liability and automobile liability coverage with limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence through PLAN JPA. In addition, excess liability coverage is provided through the California Affiliated Risk Management Authorities (CARMA) in the amount of $5,000,000 per occurrence, resulting in total available coverage of $6,000,000 per occurrence. Further, the City of Dublin is self-insured for workers’ compensation claims and has received consent from the State of California Department of Industrial Relations to operate as a self-insured employer. The City maintains excess workers’ compensation insurance through Midwest Employers Casualty Company, with a specific retention of $500,000 per occurrence and statutory coverage provided above that retention. Each fiscal year, as part of its budgetary process, the City appropriates funds specifically to satisfy valid claims, including workers’ compensation obligations and any retained liabilities associated with its participation in the pooled risk program. The City of Dublin certifies that its liability coverage meets the requirements set forth in Amendment 1 to the Freeway Maintenance Agreement, including coverage for bodily injury and property damage liability in the amount of $1,000,000 per occurrence, with excess coverage bringing the total available limits to at least $6,000,000 per occurrence.
