Sarro, Purchasing Director City of Elgin 150 Dexter Court Elgin, Illinois 60120 Dear Mike: RE: BUS LEASE We have reviewed the bus lease agreement between the City of Elgin and School District U-46 and would like to offer a few comments and recommendations as outlined below. It is possible that some of these may have already been incorporated in the current lease contract. 1 . Since School District U-46 is in possession of the two buses all year, we recommend the term of the lease be amended to September 1 to September 1. The current arrangement contains a gap between June 14 and September 1. If a loss were to occur during this time period, there is some question as to the responsibilities of School District U-46 to protect the interests of the City. 2 . We suggest you attempt to incorporate a hold harmless/ indemnification clause in the City' s favor into the lease agreement. 3. The insurance requirements as contained in item 4 should be broadened to include automobile liability. 4 . Section 4 does not specify required minimum insurance limits of liability. We strongly urge you to incorporate a clause specifying minimum acceptable limits of liability. Due to the catastrophe potential associated with the use of these buses , we suggest the minimum acceptable limits selected be no less than $5,000,000 per accident. It is acceptable for the lessee to accomplish this through a combination of primary and umbrella insurance. 5 . We note the certificate of insurance which you submitted to us does not specify any coverage for the collision peril. If Management Consultants in Risk and Insurance Michael A. Sarro, 2 July 26, 1985 Purchasing Director City of Elgin 150 Dexter Court Elgin, Illinois 60120 you have not already done so, we suggest you obtain a current certificate and confirm that this coverage is in place. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Very truly yours, STEVEN A. COOMBS SAC:lf October 17, 1985 MEMORANDUM TO: Jim Cook FROM: Ray Moller SUBJECT: Lease of City Owned School Buses to School District U-46 The City of Elgin Transportation Department owns two full-sized school buses.
