53-13-2: SCOPE:
   A.   This Procedure and Statement of Intent is issued in anticipation of changes made to Utah Code Annotated section 31A-22-305 by the 2003 Legislature under Senate Bill 214, which passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives and is expected to be signed into law by the Governor of the State of Utah.
   B.   Salt Lake City affirmatively states that it will continue its practice of not providing uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage for its owned vehicles. In other words, Salt Lake City declines to provide uninsured/underinsured motorist benefits for any and all vehicles and operators covered by its self-insurance program. Further, the following statements relate the City's history and intent with regard to uninsured and underinsured motorist benefits:
      1.   Salt Lake City is currently and has been self-insured for workers' compensation and third party liability risks for many years.
      2.   Self-insured entities such as Salt Lake City are allowed to select the coverage levels, or decline coverage for their risks within the bounds of law.
      3.   Salt Lake City provides workers' compensation benefits for all employees injured on the job, including those injured by uninsured and underinsured drivers.
      4.   Salt Lake City has never opted to provide uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage under its self-insured program because the City's workers' compensation program covers its employees for such accidents. (2019 Compilation)
