Council raises employee wellness reimbursement to $300 annually, capped at 20 participants
Summary
Centerville increased its employee wellness reimbursement from $200 to $300 per year for up to 20 employees to better align with local recreation costs; council discussed fringe‑benefit tax and budget impact before approving the resolution unanimously.
Human Resources staff proposed increasing the employee wellness reimbursement from $200 to $300 annually to bring the benefit closer to local recreation costs and to expand participation within existing budget limits. Staff said 13 employees currently use the program and that, even with up to seven additional participants, the city would remain within the approved budget for the benefit.
Council members discussed taxable fringe‑benefit implications and whether South Davis Recreation or other partners could offer discounts; staff said the rec center has been approached but declined to make a special arrangement. After discussion, a motion to approve Resolution No. 2026‑21 raising the incentive to $300 for up to 20 employees passed unanimously.
