Jackson County board approves insurance Option A; annual premium about $484,478
Summary
The Jackson County Board of Supervisors chose Option A for the county insurance contribution, adopting an annual premium described in the meeting as roughly $484,478 and instructing staff to proceed with the ICAP-based plan.
Don Swicker, chair of the Jackson County Board of Supervisors, led consideration of two insurance contribution options presented by a representative of 1st Main Street Insurance. Jennifer Michandi, introduced by the board for the presentation, explained there were two choices: Option A, the county’s original contribution proposal from ICAP, and Option B, a revised package discussed at the prior work session that would remove some buildings from the county blanket coverage.
Board members discussed projected savings and how changing coverage would affect premiums. Don Swicker stated, “it’s roughly $484,478,” when the annual premium was read aloud during discussion. After brief remarks about potential coverage reductions and limited premium savings from removing buildings, a motion to proceed with Option A passed by voice vote. The board instructed staff to process the selected option and submit related paperwork for next week’s claims run.
