  Subject: [Vision2020] Liability for Alcohol Catered Events


  Yesterday afternoon the Administrative Committee had a discussion of =
the possible need to update our policy relative to catered events on =
city property that include alcohol. We heard from a number of local =
business owners as to how this might impact their ability to participate =
in these events. No formal action was taken. We requested staff provide =
additional information regarding what the liability exposure is to the =
city. I know I am personally interested in hearing from affected =
businesses. Do you carry liquor liability? Can you get a certificate of =
insurance naming the city as an additional insured? Is the cost =
something you can reasonably cover?  I believe our two goals are:

    1.. Make certain the city and it's citizens are adequately =
protected.=20
    2.. We don't adversely affect the use of the 1912 building because =
of added insurance costs.
  Assuming it is determined coverage is something the city will require =
of caterers, I hope the two aren't mutually exclusive. Thanks again to =
the business owners who took the time yesterday to come and offer input. =
I believe this may be back on our agenda March 3rd.=20

  Jon Kimberling
