County declines $1,500 Empower amendment fee, clerk asked to contact former staff
Summary
The board declined to pay a $1,500 amendment fee for an Empower retirement plan and directed Co Clerk Jenni Lupkes to contact former staff who retain the Empower plan, according to the minutes of the Aug. 4 meeting.
The Kearney County Board of Commissioners discussed an amendment to the county's Empower retirement plan that would carry a $1,500 fee and voted not to pay the amendment charge. The board instructed County Co Clerk Jenni Lupkes to contact former staff members who continue to have accounts under Empower, according to the meeting minutes.
The minutes record the financial amount ($1,500) associated with the Empower amendment and the board’s direction to the clerk, but do not detail alternative steps for retirement‑plan administration or identify which former staff members to contact. For procedural follow‑up, the County Clerk's Office and Human Resources are the likely contacts listed in county records.
