About this file
This is an Insurance Requirements Exhibit for the City of Palo Alto, California, establishing mandatory insurance coverage specifications for contractors entering into agreements with the municipality. The City requires contractors to obtain and maintain comprehensive insurance coverage at their sole expense throughout the entire contract term, with all policies issued by companies holding an AM Best's Key Rating of A-:VII or higher and licensed to transact insurance business in California. Required coverage includes Worker's Compensation (statutory limits), Employer's Liability (statutory limits), General Liability with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury, property damage, and combined coverage, Automobile Liability with $1,000,000 per occurrence limits for bodily injury per person and per occurrence, and property damage, and Professional Liability/Errors and Omissions with $1,000,000 all damages coverage where applicable. The City of Palo Alto must be named as an additional insured on all policies except Workers' Compensation, Employer's Liability, and Professional Insurance, and all coverage must include a Contractual Liability Endorsement providing insurance for the contractor's indemnification agreement with the City.
Contractors must submit certificates of insurance evidencing required coverage to PurchasingSupport@PaloAlto.Gov and must include specific endorsement provisions requiring primary coverage for claims arising from the named insured's operations, cross-liability provisions that do not increase total policy liability, and cancellation notice requirements. For policy cancellations due to reasons other than non-payment of premium, contractors must provide the City with at least thirty days' written notice before the effective cancellation date; for cancellations due to non-payment of premium, contractors must provide at least ten days' written notice. Award of any resulting contract is contingent upon full compliance with these insurance requirements as specified in the exhibit.
