New Lisbon plans switch to bronze health plan as premiums rise; audit low bid $14,000
Summary
Facing an 11% projected rise in medical insurance premiums, the Board agreed to assume a switch to a bronze health plan for the 2025 tentative budget pending agent Kevin Morse's input; an audit RFP returned a low bid of $14,000 from Mostert.
The Board recorded a projected 11% increase in medical insurance premiums and agreed to use a bronze plan for the 2025 tentative budget, subject to further input from insurance agent Kevin Morse. The change is intended to contain employee-benefit costs in the preliminary budget.
RFPs for a town financial audit returned a low bid of $14,000 from Mostert, which the minutes record as the low-price response. The Board also agreed to keep a 2.5% tax-levy increase in the budget, estimated to raise about $19,525 over the 2024 budget.
These items were incorporated into the preliminary budget the Board adopted for the purpose of holding a public hearing Oct. 8, 2024; staff were directed to publish the hearing notice and post the preliminary budget for public review.
