General Liability Insurance Requirement
The City of Aurora requires that an applicant for a temporary use permit provide liability insurance sufficient to protect the City from liability claims arising out of the activities which will take place under the permit. An applicant for a permit will need to contact his or her insurance agent to specifically request a certificate of insurance for the event covered by the permit. A policy declarations page or copy of the policy will not substitute for a certificate of insurance. The certificate must name the City of Aurora, Risk Management Division, 15151 E. Alameda Parkway, Aurora CO 80012 as the certificate holder and the City of Aurora must be named as an additional insured. The date the certificate is issued should be no more than 30 days prior to the event. If the certificate is older than 30 days the applicant may be asked to provide a more recently issued certificate within 30 days of the event. The limits of insurance for bodily injury liability and property damage liability arising out of the event or activity described in the permit must be a minimum of $1 million per occurrence. The agent should describe the activity described in the application for the Temporary Use Permit and the date or dates in the section of the certificate titled “Description of Operations/Locations/Vehicles/Exclusions Added by Endorsement/Special Provisions. If the location of the event is different than the insured location, this section MUST be completed. If alcohol is going to be served, liability policy must include and specifically reference host liquor liability and included under description of operations/locations. The named insured and the person or business applying for the Temporary Use Permit must be the same or an explanation (e.g. DBA or description of the event and connection to the requestor) must be provided.
