Council passes budget, insurance, and personnel resolutions and advances traffic ordinances
Summary
Council approved a package of administrative resolutions including reinsurance and retiree benefit contracts, a FY2025 budget amendment, and adopted the corporate budget for 2026; it also advanced two traffic ordinances to second reading by unanimous roll calls.
The Moline City Council approved several administrative and budget-related resolutions and advanced traffic ordinances to second reading.
On non-consent matters, council approved: - Resolution 19.1: authorizing a one-year reinsurance coverage agreement with Evolution Risk Partners LLC for medical and prescription drug benefit claims (effective 01/01/2026). - Resolution 19.2: authorizing the mayor to execute a retiree benefit management services agreement with Retiree First LLC for the city’s fully insured Medicare Advantage prescription drug plan (effective 01/01/2026). - Resolution 19.3: authorizing the director of human resources to execute a Medicare Advantage group agreement with UnitedHealthcare Insurance Company (effective 01/01/2026). - Resolution 19.4: authorizing services and fee agreement with USI Insurance Services LLC and coverage with Ace American Insurance Company (effective 12/01/2025). - Resolution 19.5: approving the second and final FY2025 budget amendment (Council Bill/Resolution 1174-2024). - Resolution 19.6: adopting the annual corporate budget for calendar year 2026 (01/01/2026–12/31/2026). The budget adoption vote was recorded with six ayes and no nays, including the mayor’s affirmative vote.
Council also advanced multiple traffic and parking ordinances (Chapter 20 amendments) to second reading, including parking-prohibition adjustments on 9th Street and school-speed-limit alterations on 12th Avenue and 48th Street; motions to advance carried on unanimous roll calls. The consent agenda (minutes, appointments and items 16.1–17.1) was approved earlier by omnibus roll call (5 ayes, 0 nays).
These actions are administrative and budgetary; specific contract details and budget line-item changes were described in staff reports or referenced materials rather than read in full on the floor. Staff indicated the FY2025 amendment should leave the year "very favorable," and the city adopted the 2026 corporate budget as presented.
