Wieland moved and Mr. Sondr~ll seconded to grant permission for out of state travel to Hike Steiner, Data Processing Coordinator, to attend the 1990 AS/400 Technical Conference October 8-12 in New Orleans, LA. On roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. LOST INSTRUMENT BONDS, puPlicate checks issued NOTXON, passed Hr. Wieland moved and Hr. Sondrall seconded to authorize the County Auditor to issue duplicate payroll checks in the amount of $776.49 and $883.45 to Noreen Hoots, Social Services employee; and cancel warrants #13476 and #13477. On roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. INSURANCE, Liability policy renewal Robert Dawson, Dawson Insurance Agency, submitted a quote of $143,479 for liability insurance for the period August 1, 1990 through July 31, 1991. He recommended changing the automobile physical damage insurance for additional premium of $5,375. The advantage will be collision insurance on high valued trucks and new Sheriff's vehicles. Accountant Mike Montplaisir estimated the liability insurance premium for Bonanzaville, U.S.A. at $2,000, and he recommended bi)ling them for this amount. He said the Red River Valley Fair Association has been carrying their own liability insurance for a number of years. Hr. Wieland said the County doesn't manage the operations or buildings at Bonanzavi'lle so the Historical Society should pay their own insurance. Mr. Dawson said they cannot obtain insurance with the North Dakota Insurance Reserve Fund unless it is with the County. Mr. Wieland asked if there is any recommendation from NDIRF to reduce potential exposure, and Mr. Dawson will recommend a survey of insurance exposures and hazards at Bonanzaville. Mr. Wieland requested the information in writing. States Attorney Robert Hoy said both Bonanzaville and the Red River Valley Fairgrounds are on property the County has legal interest in to the extent that if someone would get hurt, the County may have some relatively minimal exposure. He recommended that the County do one of two things regarding both those pieces of property: 1) obtain liability insurance through Dawson Insurance Agency for the County's interest, however slight it may be, or 2) regarding the fairgrounds, since they already have a policy, require alternatively that they make Cass County a named insured under that policy which probably would cost them nothing but would cover the County's interests as it may appear to be. MOTXON, passed Hr. Eckert moved and Mrs. Toussaint seconded to proceed with payment of insurance premiums for the next year with the following changes: additional $5,375 for automobile physical damage; and instruct Auditor's Office to bill Bonanzaville $2,000 for liability insurance. On roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. The Commission will expect a communication from Mr. Dawson on the North Dakota
