Submitted for:	Jorge L. Trevino	Submitted By:	Jorge L. Trevino
Department:	Civil Legal Division

Subject:

Discussion and possible action to enter into a 1 year (October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021) Extension Agreement between Webb County and Tristar Insurance Group in the amount of sixty-eight thousand seven hundred eight-four dollars and 40/100 cents ($68,784.40) to administrate Webb County’s worker's compensation & liability claims; and authorizing the Webb County Judge to sign all relevant documents and any other matters incident thereto. [Account #1001-1180-001-432059/Liability & 6200-10-0-001-432059 Workers Comp (TRISTAR is TPA for workers comp. & liability claims)]

Issue: As per Risk Management no vendor submitted bids to be administrators for Webb County’s worker’s compensation policy.

Solution: Due to the statutory requirement that the county have Worker's Compensation it is prudent to extend the current
Agreement under the same terms for an additional year to give the county an opportunity to solicit vendors to submit bids for Workers Compensation.

Result: The County will be in compliance with its obligation to have Worker’s Compensation.
