SUMMARY& RECOMMENDATION
History of the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk Pool (TMLIRP):
In 1973, the Legislature passed legislation requiring Texas cities to provide workers'
compensation coverage to employees. The cost of workers' compensation through
traditional insurers, however, was extremely cost prohibitive and cities found it difficult
to secure coverage. Fortunately, the law allowed cities to meet the requirement by
creating a self-insurance program under theInterlocal Cooperation Act. It was this
legislation that allowed for the creation of the Risk Pool.
By July 1, 1974, the Texas Municipal League Workers' Compensation Joint Insurance
Fund was created. During the first year, 130 cities became members. Through this
partnership, cities in Texaswere able to join forces by pooling funds together and
managing risks as a unified team. The impact of the program on Texas cities was
significant. By year five, membership was at almost 500 members. In 1982, the Liability
Fund was added for similar reasons; liability insurance coverage was scarce and
expensive. Shortly thereafter in 1983, Property Fund was added as well. By 1989,
membership had grown to 850 members strong in Workers' Compensation, 500
members in Liability, and 400 members in Property.
In 1989, the Funds were collectively renamed the Texas Municipal League
Intergovernmental Risk Pool. Today the Risk Pool serves almost 2800 members,
providing a stable and economic source of risk financing and loss prevention services.
The City of La Porte is one of the risk pool members. As a member, the City has an
opportunity to make a nomination to its board of directors. Mayor Rigby has expressed
an interest in being the City of La Porte’s nominee and representative on the TMLIRP
Board of Directors.
ACTION REQUIRED BY CITY COUNCIL
Approve nomination of Mayor Rigby to Place 8 on the TMLIRP Board of Directors.
