Contribution to Employee HSA Account for Benefit Year 2029-2020
Monica Harris, Director of Finance, explained that in addition to the $51,000 in premium
savings that would be disbursed to employee HSA account (as approved on March 19,
2019), there was an additional $59,000 that could be used to contribute to employee HSA
accounts. The city opted to no longer be self -insured in 2004 and this money has been
sitting in an account accruing interest since then. These funds must be used for employee
benefits, therefore it is the recommendation of staff that this be added to HSA accounts
as well, for a maximum city contribution of $1,300 per employee that enrolls in the HSA
plan. Any funds left over could be used in future years.
MOTION by Mark McClinton, second by Carla Trussell, to make a favorable
recommendation for city contributing $1,300 to employee HSA accounts for those that
