Senoia officials

will decide Monday night about the city's liability insurance policy.

City officials

expressed deep concern when city clerk Debby Hogan told them April 21

that the city's liability premium had increased from just over $30,000

to $43,000.

"That's

just unacceptable. That's nearly a 40 percent increase," said City

Councilman Bill Wood.

Wood asked

why the city couldn't increase the deductible on some of its items and

try to achieve the same premium.

The insurance

policy is offered to the city through the Georgia Municipal Association,

and Wood said the city might consider using private insurance firms for

quotes.

City officials

have been working the last two weeks to try and find a way to cut the

costs.

In other actions

at Monday's meeting, the board will consider appointments to the city's

library board.

The meeting

starts at 7 p.m. at City Hall.
