MMA
Property & Casualty
Pool Program Board of Directors
In
1987, the Association established
a public self-funded property
and casualty risk pool.
Because of certain statutory
requirements, the Executive
Committee alone could not
be named as the governing
authority for the Risk Pool.
State law requires that
a majority of the members
of a board of directors
of a public pool be officials
from participating pool
members and, further, that
there must be two public
members who are not currently
serving as elected or appointed
officials. Thus,
under the contract establishing
the Pool, the Board of Directors
is composed of the Executive
Committee of the Maine Municipal
Association as the nucleus
of the board, as many additional
municipal officials as are
necessary to ensure that
a majority of the Board
members are representing
currently participating
members, and two public
members appointed by the
Board. The
powers and duties of the
Board are prescribed by
the Pool Contract Agreement
and entail all the normal
corporate and legal authorities
necessary to manage and administer
the Pool, similar to those
exercised by the Workers Compensation
Board of Trustees.
