Roscommon County commissioners begin 2027 budget planning; health insurance costs flagged
Summary
Commissioner Kim Morley told the Board the county’s 2027 budget planning must account for an estimated 15% health insurance increase and a goal to fully fund employee HSAs; commissioners discussed parity for non‑union staff and other insurance cost pressures.
Commissioner Kim Morley updated the Roscommon County Board on early planning for the 2027 budget, saying the county is facing an estimated 15% increase in health insurance costs and seeks to fully fund employee health savings accounts (HSAs). Morley also noted anticipated increases for dental, vision and life insurance and asked the Board to set goals for next year’s budget.
Commissioner Rex Wolfsen reiterated the Board’s prior direction that non‑union employees should receive the same adjustments as union staff. Commissioners discussed potential increases and related budget pressures but took no formal vote; the item remains part of the Board’s unfinished business.
