Check for $17K Presented to Woodbury First Selectman by CIRMA

WOODBURY — The Connecticut Interlocal Risk Management Agency recently presented a check for $17,111 to Woodbury First Selectman Barbara Perkinson.

The funds represent a share of CIRMA's latest $5 million Members' Equity Distribution.

Over the past 12 years, CIRMA put nearly $42 million in equity back into the budgets of its member towns, cities, schools and local public agencies.

David Demchak, CIRMA president and CEO commented, "Because of the sustained commitment and dedication demonstrated by our community of employees, members, board and committee members, and business partners, CIRMA is better positioned than ever before. CIRMA's Members' Equity Distribution program affirms our financial fortitude and deliberate and disciplined approach to creating value for CIRMA's members."

The town of Woodbury received a total of $157,212 in distributed members' equity, one of many unique benefits of being a CIRMA member.

With 370 members across the Nutmeg State, CIRMA is the leading provider of Workers' Compensation, Liability, Auto, and Property insurance coverages to Connecticut public entities.

CIRMA is the only Connecticut public entity insurance provider that returns equity to its members rather than shareholders.

"When you combine the power of our shared community, aligned mission and values, and mutual goals, the results are limitless.

"CIRMA's deliberate execution of our financial and operational strategies continues to drive our ability to distribute equity back to our members," lauded Matthew Knickerbocker, chair of the CIRMA Board of Directors.

CIRMA was established as a Connecticut Conference of Municipalities service program.

Today, CIRMA is Connecticut's number-one municipal risk financing and risk management services provider for Connecticut's public entities.

A member-owned and governed agency, CIRMA provides high-quality, tailored insurance for municipalities, school districts, and local public agencies.

CIRMA operates competitive Workers' Compensation and Liability-AutoProperty pools and provides holistic claims services and risk management solutions exclusively to the Connecticut public sector.
