Purpose

: The Property and Insurance Committee requested the Request for Proposal (RFP) process be conducted for property, liability and workers compensation insurance coverage for 2018. We received proposals from two vendors, however only one provided a proposal for all lines of coverage. Municipal Property Insurance Company (MPIC) submitted a proposal for property coverage only. Therefore, Wisconsin County Mutual Insurance Corporation (WCMIC) was determined as the most cost effective proposal for 2018*.   

 

*WCMIC provides a discount of $29,936 for consolidating the liability, workers compensation and property coverage for 2018.
