| Good evening and congratulations to our new mayor and council members. My name is Cindy Chamberlain. I'm here to question the new | 00:00:00 | |
| policies that have been implemented regarding the nonprofit organizations in Wickenburg. Approximately the 1st of November this | 00:00:07 | |
| year, several nonprofit organizations that contract with the town for events on their property is now requiring requiring all | 00:00:14 | |
| their participants to also carry their own limited liability insurance policy. | 00:00:21 | |
| Nonprofit organizations must carry their own liability insurance policy that names the town, the organization and anyone else | 00:00:29 | |
| associated with the event. | 00:00:34 | |
| Is speaking with the insurance agent that wrote the policy for the upcoming Gold Rush days Wickenburg Art Club show those | 00:00:38 | |
| insurance policies also cover their participants. It's my understanding that the town feels this is another layer of protection | 00:00:45 | |
| for the town in the event of a lawsuit. But you can guarantee that no amount of insurance. | 00:00:51 | |
| Policies will stop a determined lawyer from suing everyone they can find in any event. | 00:00:58 | |
| This is a hardship and an overkill for a lot of art and craft vendors in this town. | 00:01:04 | |
| Some events are only $25.00 to participate and the crafter may only make $40. Adding an additional insurance policy will severely | 00:01:10 | |
| impact a lot of participants. In any event, as a vendor, we pay for this insurance in our entry fee to the nonprofit organization | 00:01:16 | |
| that is hosting the event. | 00:01:23 | |
| So then where will it end? Will you require participants at the Christmas light parade to carry a special insurance problem? | 00:01:30 |
