Regular Board of County Commissioners Meeting · 2026-05-19 · agenda_item

This item concerns insurance requirements for a grantee, as discussed during a Highlands County Board of County Commissioners meeting. The grantee must maintain specific types and limits of insurance at their own cost. This is a key part of an agreement, and not having it could cancel the deal. All insurance must come from companies licensed in the state. The county will not pay any deductibles. This item is currently under review. The work involves ensuring compliance with insurance mandates, which may include obtaining quotes and securing policies. This early stage presents an opportunity for insurance agents and brokers to connect with potential grantees to discuss their needs and ensure they meet the county's requirements before final agreements are set.
