The following attachments are provided as required:
1. Qualification statements and/or resumes of the private provider and all duly authorized

2. Proof of insurance: A private provider may perform building code inspection services on a building

covering all services performed as a private provider. Such insurance shall have minimum policy
limits of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate for any project with a
construction cost of $5 million or less and $2 million per occurrence and $4 million in the aggregate

of a fee owner to require additional insurance or higher policy limits. For these purposes, the term

subsection shall be written only by insurers authorized to do business in the state with a minimum
A.M. Best’s rating of A. Before providing building code inspection services within a local building
