NOTE 4 – OTHER INFORMATION
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Village is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; natural disasters; and injuries to the Village’s employees. The Village has purchased insurance from private insurance companies for auto, general liabilities, employee bonds, boiler and machinery, property, workers’ compensation and health risks. The policies call for various levels of deductibles or self-insured retentions. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage during the current year. For all insured programs, settlement amounts have not exceeded insurance coverage for the current or three prior years.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Litigation
The Village is a defendant in various lawsuits. Although the outcome of these lawsuits is not presently determinable, in the opinion of the Village's attorney, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Village.
Workers’ Compensation
The Village reports a workers’ compensation claims payable liability of $20,661 as a contingency for previous self-insurance activities within the General Fund. The Village is no longer self-insured.
Grants
Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies, principally the federal government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the Village expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
DuPage Water Commission
The Village is a customer of the DuPage Water Commission, and has executed a Water Supply Contract with the Commission for a term ending in 2024. The Contract provides that the Village pay its proportionate share of “fixed costs” (debt service and capital costs) to the Commission, such obligation being unconditional and irrevocable whether or not water is ever delivered. These costs are expenses along with the other “operation and maintenance” charges from the Commission.
