Internal Service Funds
The Property & Casualty (P&C) division maintains all other aspects of the city’s insurance program. Utilizing both
self-insured and outside commercial insurance programs, the P&C division focuses on controlling costs from
property and casualty claims and/or litigation. It also strives to preserve and protect the city’s assets through loss
prevention, loss control, and risk financing mechanisms.
The Employee Health & Safety Division helps to educate our city’s workforce on the importance of maintaining
safety processes and controls. Both Workers’ Compensation and Risk Management pursue subrogation when
possible, recovering funds from third parties who are liable for losses paid by the city.
FY2022 DISCUSSION
For FY2022, the department anticipates Property Insurance to continue to rise exponentially in addition to an
increase in the cost of deductibles related to wind and hail damage.
Overall the expense budget includes an increase in funding associated with rising Workers’ Compensation costs
and Property Insurance costs.
