During the first payroll period in 1999, $300 will be placed within the <br />medical reimbursement accounts of the two sergeants with family health coverage. These <br />employees will then be reimbursed for eligible medical reimbursements occurring in <br />1999. Any unused proceeds at the end of 1999 will be retained by the City. The total <br />cost of the settlement would be $600. <br /> <br />Samuelson asked if these proceeds would be in pretax form. Fulton confirmed that the <br />monies would be in pretax form and utilized through a medical reimbursement account. <br /> <br />Hoffman asked if staff anticipates negotiations with other employee groups. Fulton said <br />both the Police and Public Works union contracts did not include such a provision, and <br />negotiations are underway. It appears the hot topic during negotiations will be health <br />insurance, but the good news is that premiums will not increase with the City's current <br />insurance carrier. Fulton reiterated the Council's policy of maintaining a constant <br />premium dollar contribution for health insurance purposes remains consistent. <br /> <br />Motion by Gunderman, seconded by Hoffman, to APPROV AL OF THE LANGUAGE <br />AS IT RELATES TO THE HEALTH INSURANCE REOPENER PROVISIONS <br />WITH THE TEAMSTERS PUBLIC AND LAW ENFORCEMENT EMPLOYEES <br />UNION LOCAL NO. 320 REGARDING 1998 HEALTH INSURANCE. <br /> <br />4 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried. <br /> <br />Announcements and Updates <br /> <br />Council sang "Happy Birthday" to Gunderman. <br /> <br />The Ramsey County League of Local Governments will hold an elected officials <br />workshop on November 19. <br /> <br />Repair work on the 10th St. railroad crossing will occur this weekend.
