He continued that he would like to look at our total <br />health insurance package this upcoming year and look at a number <br />of things that are available on the market today that we may not <br />have taken advantage of so far, and he may be making a different <br />recommendation next year. <br />Commissioner Scurlock related back to the wage package for <br />firemen, for example, as he believed that contract has been <br />agreed to, and wanted to know what that total package percentage <br />equates to when you figure in the equivalent percentage for the <br />amount allowed for the increase in the cost of health insurance. <br />Administrator Chandler believed the percentage equivalent <br />for the insurance increase would equate to somewhere between <br />2-3%. <br />Commissioner Scurlock believed that then would bring their <br />total wage package in the range of 7/80, and Administrator <br />Chandler agreed that would be about right, but felt the insurance <br />equivalent is closer to 3% than 20. <br />Commissioner Scurlock noted that by putting the burden on <br />the county to accept the increased insurance responsibility, it <br />means there are more dollars in the wage package that are not <br />taxable dollars, and Administrator Chandler concurred. <br />ADDENDUM TO COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT W/DIVISION OF FORESTRY <br />The Board reviewed letter from District Forester Paul <br />PaImiotto: <br />F <w„ y <br />SEP 5 198 ��o1. <br />
