FQ COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT On March 13, 1939, the Common Council adopted resolution number a9~57, amending the City's agreement- with John Hancock Hutual Life Insurance Company. Recital l(a) of that agreement stated that John Hancock provides term life and accidental death . and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance to participating employees. The reference to AD&D insurance was erroneous as Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company provides that coverage. The City Attorney has advised that resolution number 39-57 should be repealed and a new resolution adopted. In your packet is a new resolution which is identical to resolution number 39-57 except the new resolution omits reference to AD&D in- surance. For your reference, resolution number 89-57 is also enclosed. 75-0264 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 20 21 22 23 24 .-' '- .., ../ 1 2 3 4 5 6 RESOLUTION NO.

Their amount of insurance decreases to 25% of the above values when the retiree turns 70 years old. There are presently 282 retirees who have this coverage. Currently, the rate for this insurance is 43 cents per $1000 each month whether for active or retired employees. That rate has been in effect since April 1, 1987. However, we are facing a rate increase this year due to our experience during 1988. John Hancock has given us two options for funding it effective January 28, 1989: OPTION 1 Combined rate 56 cents OPTION 2 Separate rates Actives Retirees .43 cents $1. 72 During 1988, the city spent $48,500 for this benefit. Under option 1, the added monthly cost to the city would be about $1500. Under option 2, there would be no added cost to the city since the retirees would pick up the entire added charge. The total cost for this option from January 28 through July 31, 1989, would be about $9000. I have only projected the costs for this option through July 31, 1989, so that the life insurance contract will coincide with the PERS medical plans contract year. I plan to seek proposals from various insurance companies for providing life insurance starting August 1, 1989, to insure we are getting the best available rate. I recommend that all of our employee-related insurance plans (ie: dental, vision, life insurance, LTD and AD&D) be changed to an August 1 rate effective date beginning this year, so that all rate changes will have the same effective date and the new rates will be known in time to incorporate the city's portion of them in the new budget each year. I recommend option 1 since it would maintain past practice and cushion the impact on retirees. 1 2 3 4. 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 . 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 2:.Z 23 24 25 26 27 28 '-" / RESOLUTION NO.
