City Council Meeting · 2026-05-26 · agenda_item

This item concerns professional liability insurance requirements for engineering work with the City of Cocoa. The city requires proof of insurance at a minimum of $3,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate, with a deductible no larger than $50,000. For policies on a claims-made basis, engineers must provide evidence of tail coverage for five years after project completion. This requirement is currently under review as part of upcoming city council discussions. The scope of work involves ensuring compliance with these insurance mandates for any engineering services contracted by the city. This early stage means engineering firms and their insurance providers can engage with the city to understand and meet these specific professional liability needs. Businesses specializing in professional liability insurance and engineering services should consider reaching out to the City of Cocoa to align with these upcoming requirements.
