Council funds six-month Workspring wellness pilot for city employees, approves $2,400 appropriation
Summary
Council approved ordinance 79 (emergency) to accept a six-month Workspring employee wellness program and appropriated $2,400; the program includes a staff survey and monthly toolkit emails to build a longer-term wellness plan.
Council heard a presentation about a proposed health and wellness program for city employees and approved ordinance 79 2026 as an emergency measure to contract with Workspring for an initial six-month engagement and survey.
The presenter said the Workspring package includes a staff survey and a six-month "monthly spotlight toolkit" of emails and materials to engage employees and collect preferences. "I would just like to get this off the ground and see what our employees want and need to improve their health and wellness," the presenter said. Council approved the $2,400 appropriation by voice vote and asked that staff return with results and recommendations for any longer-term program linkage to insurance benefits.
