Hello folks,
Common Cycle in Ann Arbor, Michigan is hoping to transition from a mobile repair operation into a storefront cooperative. We currently have a $1 million general liability insurance policy, and we pay around $700/yr for that coverage.
Our adviser suggested that we should get directors and officers insurance to protect the 10 board members above and beyond the $1M policy.
*My questions*: --> What insurance policies does your organization hold? How much do you pay for that coverage? --> Should Common Cycle purchase additional policies based on our move into a physical space? (in our case, physical space = more patrons served, so our liability may increase).
PS: yes, I see the info about insurance on the Wiki ( http://w.bikecollectives.org/index.php?title=Insurance). I am hoping that this thread can collect more personal insights / opinions which don't appear in the Wiki.
Thanks for reading, Andrew
