INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTORS
Without limiting Contractor’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, Contractor shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder by the Contractor, its agents, representatives, or employees.
Minimum Scope of Insurance
Coverage shall be at least as broad as:
Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability coverage (occurrence form CG0001).
Insurance Services Office form number CA 0001 (Ed. 1/87) covering Automobile Liability, code 1 (any auto).
Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California.
Employer’s Liability Insurance.
Minimum Limits of Insurance
Contractor shall maintain limits no less than:
General Liability: $2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. The general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project. An umbrella policy may be used to provide additional liability coverage, so long as the combined General Liability coverage (General Liability and umbrella) is at least $2,000,000.
Automobile Liability: $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
Employer’s Liability: $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.
Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions
Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City.
At the option of the City, either: (1) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers or (2) the Contractor shall provide a financial guarantee satisfactory to the City guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses.
Other Insurance Provisions
The general liability and automobile liability policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
Additional Insured Endorsement:
General Liability: The City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and VII-3
volunteers shall be covered as insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the Contractor. General liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the Contractor’s insurance, or as a separate owner’s policy.
Automobile Liability: The City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and volunteers shall be covered as insureds with respect to liability arising out of automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by or on behalf of the Contractor.
For any claims related to this project, the Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects the City, its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials, employees, or volunteers shall be excess of the Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it.
Each insurance policy required by this clause shall be endorsed to state that coverage shall not be canceled by either party, except after thirty (30) days prior written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, has been given to the City.
Each insurance policy shall be endorsed to state that the inclusion of more than one insured shall not operate to impair the rights of one insured against another insured, and the coverages afforded shall apply as though separate policies had been issued to each insured.
Each insurance policy shall be in effect prior to awarding the contract and each insurance policy or a successor policy shall be in effect for the duration of the project. The maintenance of proper insurance coverage is a material element of the contract and failure to maintain or renew coverage or to provide evidence of renewal may be treated by the City as a material breach of contract on the Contractor’s part.

The endorsements should be on the City authorized forms provided with the contract specifications. Standard ISO forms which shall be subject to City approval and amended to conform to the City’s requirements may be acceptable in lieu of City authorized forms. All certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before the contract is awarded. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications at any time.
Subcontractors
Contractor shall include all subcontractors as insured under its policies or shall furnish separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverages for VII-4
