Honorable Norman B. Rice

President

Seattle City Council

Dear Councilmember Rice:

Re: Proposed Revisions to Seattle Municipal Code 3.90 - Official Bonds

I request that the City Council review the attached legislation which

updates the City's ordinance regarding official bonds.

Seattle municipal Code 3.90.060 provides that the City Comptroller shall

secure for the City a public employees' faithful performance bond. Duringthe last several years, the Purchasing Agent has purchased this bond since

the general responsibility for obtaining insurance coverage for the City

departments has been assigned to the Purchasing Agent.

The attached Council Bill would formally recognize the Purchasing Agent's

responsibility for acquiring the bond.

An additional provision of the current ordinance which needs to be amended

is the requirement that numerous City officers secure public officers'

bonds in the amount of $1,000. These officers are already covered by the

City's faithful performance bond. The proposed ordinance would delete

these officers -From 'the ordinance but would continue the required coveragefor all elected officials, the Chief of Police, and the Director of the

Department of Licenses and Consumer Affairs. This legislation has been

reviewed and approved by the Office of Management and Budget and the CityLaw Department.

Your review and approval of this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Sj,ncerely yours,

Tim Hill

City Comptroller

RE: Legislation regarding Fidelity BondingFor City officials

Pursuant to your memorandum, dated September 24, 1984, wehave revised the draft legislation relating to bonding of Cityofficials in accord with your suggestions:

No. 1 (Purchasing Agent to 5, page 4

No. 2 (Term of bonds) S 2, page 2

No. 3 (Chief of Police bond) S 1, page 2

No. 4 (Consultation in settling 9 4, page 3

our revisions retain the direction of the Purchasing Agent toconsult with the City Treasurer in setting the amount of theblanket bond because a substantial part of the City's exposureoccurs through special assistants of the City Treasurer.

Diaugglas N. JewettCITY ATTOMNEY

Thank you again for preparing draft legislation to simplify purchase of

fidelity bonding for City officials. Attached is a copy of the draft.

My concerns regarding this legislation are as follows:

1. Would it be possible to provide in the first paragraph that the

purchasing agent will acquire the officers' bonds for the officialslisted in the draft? Instead of having each of these officials con-tacting various brokers or insurance companies, would it be possiblefor the purchasing agent to ask the City's insurance broker to arrangefor the appropriate bonds?

2. On page 2, line 20, the ordinance provides that bonds for those personsother than elected officials shall be rewritten annually. Would it be

possible to provide that the bonds shall lapse after a four year periodor when the persons leave City service?

3. Regarding the bond for Chief of Police (Page 2,'line 23), should the

amount of the bond be increased from $1,000 to a more realistic figure?Is the Chief of Police covered by the City's general blan ket positionbond?

On Page 3, Section B, line 24, it is stated that purchasing agent in

consultation with the City Comptroller and the City Treasurer shallset the amount of the bond. Is it necessary to include the CityComptroller and the City Treasurer in the selection process? Why nothave the purchasing agent consult with the City's insurance broker andthe City-wide insurance committee?

If it is possible for you to draft amendments that you would feel

appropriate, I would be very much appreciative.
