<br />Sunday, October 08, 2006 <br /> <br />Mayor Porter and fellow Council Members: <br /> <br />I will be unable to attend the council meeting October 9, due to work <br />commitments. However, I hope we will re-evaluate the medical benefit <br />costs for employees retiring with 30 years service and 80 points. <br /> <br />It was my understanding that costs for employees retiring early (for example <br />- with 20 or 25 years) would be more than that of active employees. <br />However, I thought employees waiting until 30 years and 80 points would be <br />paying the same amount as active employees. <br /> <br />I feel that offering this option would encourage employees to remain <br />working for the city longer, rather than taking an early retirement. <br /> <br />I asked Robert (in Human Resources) to put together something for us to <br />consider which would include this option. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br /> <br />- Barry Beasley <br />
