Health insurance decision deferred after motion for St. Luke's plan dies for lack of second
Summary
Council considered employee health coverage for two employees; a motion to adopt the St. Luke's plan failed for lack of a second amid concerns about out-of-pocket costs and the item will return at a future meeting.
The Notus City Council discussed whether to provide health insurance to two employees who are no longer covered under spouses' plans, but left the question unresolved. Mayor David Porterfield reviewed several proposals and Council President Rob Hartsock moved to approve the St. Luke's health plan; the motion received no second and therefore died on the floor.
Councilman Steve Ahlborn objected to high out-of-pocket costs after the deductible is met, and the council agreed to bring the issue back at the next meeting for further consideration. No formal vote on an insurance plan occurred during the session.
