The increased was based on then current property values and vehicle schedule. Commissioners' Court approved the funding for the three months extension in the June 24th Meeting. St Paul has submitted the Renewal Proposal for October 1, 2003 thru October 1, 2004. St Paul has met the sox percent increase ceiling and in some cases reduced the premium of some lines of coverage. The two areas that had an increase were Auto and Terrorism. Auto premium increased because there are more vetfrJes on the vehicle schedule. Terrorism was required to be covered by the Federal Government but since the Federal Government did not set a premium or method of reinsurance, the insurance companies were required to include terrorism coverage with no increase premium until the govemment could establish a program. The Federal Government now has a program. The Insurance companies must offer terrorism coverage but if it is dedined and ad of terrorism occurs the insured wilt not be eligible to recover damages from the insurance company or the Federal Reinsurance Program. I have reviewed the renewal proposal and the coverage is equal to last year. The Premium for all lines of coverage except terrorism is $389,574.00. The premium for the Terrorism Coverage is $9,208.00. It my recommendation that Brazos County renew with St Paul Insurance. I also recommend that terrorism coverage be included in the renewal. The total to renew all lines of coverage is $398,782.00 St Paul will no longer accept quarterly payments, however since this is a new policy that Brazos County was not aware of prior to renewal, Insurance Network of Texas has offered to do a one-time finance plan. Brazos County will be required to 50 percent the W of December 2003, 25 percent Apr! 1, 2004 and 25 percent July 1, 2004 Please find attached for your signature the renewal forms.
