8. THE FLORIDA HURRICANE CATASTROPHE FUND REQUESTS APPROVAL OF THE FOLLOWING:

The Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund requests, that pursuant to Section 215.555(5)(b), Florida Statutes, the Trustees approve the premium formula for the 2001-2002 Contract Year. The Advisory Council reviewed the premium formula on March 15, 2001, and approved it on March 28, 2001, with $10 million incorporated for mitigation expenditures. Final action on this item was deferred at the April 10, 2001, meeting of the Trustees due to uncertainty regarding the amount of mitigation dollars that would ultimately be appropriated by the Legislature. The premium formula has been revised to establish additional rates based upon the proposed 2001-2002 state budget, which includes $30 million for mitigation expenditures. The premium formula submitted provides rates for either level of mitigation funding contingent upon the final state budget. SBA staff are recommending that the Trustees approve both premium proposals and the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe fund will implement the appropriate one after the Governor has acted on the Appropriations Bill – SB 2002. Attached hereto are copies of the relevant portions of SB 2002, showing the $30 million appropriated for mitigation. Prior to the May 15, 2001 meeting a copy of the Addendum to the March 15, 2001 Ratemaking Report will be provided.
