Grooms. McCauley, Wilson, Fetz, and Zastawney. Also present was Deputy Clerk Barbara Hollis. Agenda Item 1 Budget Over Maximum Levy President McCauley noted the budget has been advertised $715,761 over the maximum levy. This amount includes a 4% salary ~ncrease. The goal of the Council is to see that no employee makes less next year after the increase in health insurance. Agenda Item 2 Health Insurance There is a need to make the health insurance fund healthy. An additional $360,000 has been included in the proposed budget. Currently 97% of the funding is from the City and 3% is from the employee. It would save $250,000 if the single employee paid $64 per month and the family employee paid $180 per month. This could be phased in over two years by changing the contribution by the employee next year to $30 for the single plan and $120 for the family. The current rate for the employee has been the same for 16 years. Increases should have been made over the past years. A letter was referred to that was received by the Council from laborers. In response it was noted 90% of the budget is for salaries and benefits. The Council intends to reduce employees only by attrition. Action Taken: Agreement was to make the following reductions in the proposed budget: $100,000 - Health insurance made up by employee contributions $100,000 - Change the prescription co-pay to $10-$20-$40 $200,000 - Capital improvements $100,000 - Pensions ($75,000 Police, $25,000 Fire) $100,000 - Reduce 4% raise to flat raise Ior % plus flat) Questions The floor was opened to questions from the attending City employees~ Agenda Item 3 Council PERF Discussion was held regarding the Council's participation in PERF and what the cost would be.
