Limits: Per claim, each insuring agreement: $1,000,000; Aggregate: $1,000,000
B. Exposure Limits. The above are minimum acceptable coverage limits and do not infer or place a limit on the liability of Consultant nor has City assessed the risk that may be applicable to Consultant. Consultant must assess its own risks and if it deems appropriate and/or prudent maintain higher limits and/or broader coverage. The Consultant's insurance must be primary, and any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City will not contribute to, or substitute for, the coverage maintained by Consultant.
C. Costs. The cost of insurance will be included in the Consultant's bid or proposal and must be at Consultant's expense. All deductibles or self-insurance in the above described coverages will be the responsibility and at the sole risk of the Consultant.
D. Verification of Coverage
1. Consultant must provide a certificate of insurance on ISO form or equivalent, listing the City as the certificate holder, and additional insured endorsements for the requested coverages.
2. Any self-insurance must be approved in advance by the City and specified on the certificate of insurance. Additionally, when self-insured, the name, address, and telephone number of the claim's office must be noted on the certificate or attached in a separate document.
3. When any of the insurance coverages are required to remain in force after final payment, additional certificates with appropriate endorsements evidencing continuation of such coverage must be submitted along with the application for final payment.
4. For cyber insurance, the certificate of insurance confirming the required protection must confirm the required coverages in the "Additional Comments" section or provide a copy of the declarations page confirming the details of the cyber insurance policy.
E. Cancellation. No required coverage may be suspended, voided, or canceled, except after Consultant has provided thirty (30) days' advance written notice to the City.
F. Subconsultant's Insurance: If a part of this Agreement is to be sublet, Consultant must either cover all subconsultants under its insurance policies; OR require each subconsultant not so covered to meet the standards stated herein.
