Ad6ntion of Agenda: Motion by O' Connell, 2nd by Peterson to adopt
the agenda as published. Carried.
Next Meetincr: Tuesday, May 4, 1999
Chair Standafer mentioned a couple of things that need to be
discussed at a future meeting. First thing was more evening County
Board meetings . Secondly an increase in per diem. Standafer
thought maybe the Finance Committee should look into the per diem
situation.
Supr. Peterson brought up the question of who should replace the
Chair of the Board if the position is vacated. As it is now, a new
chair is "elected" by the Board of Supervisors . He feels the Vice
Chair should move into the position. Supr. O' Connell said that any
chair of a committee is more than qualified to fill the position.
Peterson would like to see this issue addressed at a future
meeting. Standafer said it will be placed on the next agenda for
discussion and possible action.
Statewide Legislative Issues: A Washburn County Resolution was
presented requesting our support in their request for the
establishment of a wayside rest area at the Veteran Cemetary on Hwy
53 as an overlook for the monument .
A Resolution from Rusk County requesting support for tire deflating
devices (stop sticks) for their squad cars . St . Croix County
already has them in place . They were purchased from our Drug Fund.
Health and Human Services has established a Resolution to dedicate
the tobacco settlement dollars to control tobacco use and offer
prevention initiatives . This will be presented at the April 20,
1999 County Board meeting.
Health Insurance: Administrative Coordinator John Krizek presented
the latest offer to the Committee . First of all no stop loss
coverage would be provided.
Krizek also stated that the actual average age of the Board of
Supervisors is 62 . The 71 average age was based on the first 18
responders to the survey.
The only plan available is a PPO plan with a $50, 000 annual maximum
benefit . Supervisors would be paying $450/month for $50, 000 in
coverage . This plan would be separate from the employee plan.
Krizek stated there really isn' t a reasonable plan available.
Chair Standafer stated we will need to present it factually to the
County Board and they will decide whether we proceed with it or
not . Motion by O' Connell to present a factual report to the full --
County Board for their direction on the insurance issue, 2nd by
Peterson. Carried.
State Budget: Chair Standafer would like to have a resolution
ready and relevant to the state budget for the next meeting. April
14 is the date set for the State Joint Finance at Osceola. It is
important that the Department Heads take the position of the County
in all issues .
Motion by O' Connell, 2nd by Luckey to adjourn. Carried. Meeting
adjourned at 10 : 00 A.M.
