About ICRMA » Prospective Members Thursday, August 28, 2008

An entity interested in joining the Independent Cities Risk Management Authority (ICRMA) JPA should complete a Prospective Member Questionnaire by clicking on the link below. Once completed, the questionnaire should be returned to Angela Jean, Assistant General Manager, at Assist.GM@icrma.org or faxed to (562) 508-4399.  To process the membership questionnaire, a $1,000 fee is required.  The fee is refundable if your agency’s membership to the JPA is not approved by ICRMA.  If admitted, the fee is applied toward the initial primary deposit.  After reviewing the questionnaire and loss data, ICRMA will contact the prospective member to provide cost indications for the desired coverage program(s).  During ICRMA’s insurance renewal process (February), prospective members will be required to complete an insurance application for each ICRMA coverage program in which the entity is interested in participating.
