In recognition of the insulation from individual liability afforded city employees, officers, elected officials, and members of boards and commissions as a result of the city’s present insurance coverage, the city, in adopting its own self-insurance program, agrees to hereinafter hold each such employee, officer, elected official, and board or commission member harmless from any civil liability whatsoever, whether resulting from his or her acts or omissions incurred in conjunction with such person’s municipal relationship, which were not intentional or wanton and willful in their nature. The city council reserves the right to determine in its sole judgement whether or not such alleged act or omission occurred within the scope of such person’s municipal relationship. Such determination shall, however, be made within 14 days of any such claim or demand. [Ord. 8616 § 8, 1977].
