Title
Authorizing the Mayor to purchase a cyber liability insurance policy from Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. for the purpose of protecting the City's cyber network for a period of one year with an option to renew for three additional one-year periods subject to annual appropriations; authorizing the annual expenditure of $140,632 from the City's Risk Management Fund; waiving competitive procurement requirements of TMC 187; and declaring an emergency.

As a direct result, Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. offers the maximum and best coverage, inspection and protection support at the most reasonable and fair premium cost.

The most recent ordinance authorizing the Mayor to enter into a contract for cyber insurance was passed in June 2021.
