<br />\ <br /> <br />LMCIT LIABILITY COVERAGE - WAIVER FORM <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Cities obtaining liability coverage from the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust must decide <br />whether or not to waive the statutory tort liability limits to the extent of the coverage purchased. The <br />decision to waive or not to waive the statutory limits has the following effects: <br /> <br />If the city does not waive the statutory tort limits, an individual claimant would be able to recover no <br />more than $300,000 on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total which all claimants <br />would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would be limited <br />to $750,000. These statutory tort limits would apply regardless of whether or not the city purchases the <br />optional excess liability coverage. <br /> <br />If the city waives the statutory tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a single <br />claimant could potentially recover up to $750,000 on a single occurrence. The total which all claimants <br />would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would also be <br />limited to $750,000, regardless of the number of claimants. <br /> <br />If the city waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single claimant <br />could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The total which all <br />claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would <br />also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the nwnber of claimants. <br /> <br />Claims to which the statutory municipal tort limits do not apply are not affected by this decision. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />This decision must be made by the city council. Cities purchasing coverage must complete and return <br />this form to LMCIT before the effective date of the coverage.
