Presenter:
Eric Rody
Description:
Cyber Insurance Renewal
LSC began purchasing cyber insurance approximately 6 years ago. The renewal date for the policy is November 15, 2021 and the policy is brought to us through the Mitchell Agency. The cyber insurance market has seen a drastic increase in claims since the start of COVID-19 and many businesses in general have had to implement many more internal controls surrounding the use of technology than ever before. We are fortunate that a vast majority of the industry standards for internal control of internet and email usage are being implemented by our corporation. Included herein is a spreadsheet showing the two lowest quotes for cyber insurance. The quotes are from Beazley, the industry leader and incumbent in this case, and Cowbell, a newer provider in the industry. While some of the benefits of each policy match and Cowbell’s premium would be lower than this past year ($29,000), other benefits within the Beazley policy far exceed that of Cowbell’s quote. The Mitchell Agency did receive other quotes for this package and all of them exceeded that of Beazley, with less benefit, so Mr. Bogan did not include them in this spreadsheet review. The Mitchell Agency and school administration recommend renewal of the Beazley policy effective November 15. |

7)F) $1.2M GO Bond Hearings/Action
Presenter:
Eric Rody
Description:
$1.2M GO Bond Hearings/Action
This matter was begun with the October regular Board Meeting with the Board adopting preliminary resolutions to move forward with action for a $1.2M GO Bond, to be repaid in 2023. The proper legal ads were placed in newspapers and websites notifying the public of the various projects to be covered by the bond proceeds (a.k.a. 1028 hearing), and the hearing on additional appropriation of the bond proceeds. After these two hearings, the Board Resolution, additional Appropriation Resolution and Final Bond Resolutions should be acted upon in order to continue the process of bond sale and closing. The attached forms and resolutions come to us through our bond counsel, Ice Miller, and have been reviewed by Mr. Laszyinski accordingly. Administration recommends approval. |
