<br />I. Risk Management
<br />The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors
<br />and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City purchases insurance coverage from
<br />commercial insurers and participates in risk pools to limit risk of loss in these areas. The risk pools maintain
<br />adequate protection from catastrophic losses to protect their financial integrity. Aggregate protection is also
<br />maintained to ensure that the City shall at no time be assessed. The City's contributions are limited to the rates
<br />calculated under the agreement. There has been no significant reduction in insurance coverage during the year
