Council approves Employee Assistance Program coverage for three staff at about $68.40 per year

City of Montrose City Council · October 14, 2025

Summary

Council approved an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) option covering three staff members at an estimated cost of $68.40 per year, following staff recommendations and council discussion about value and timing.

Council reviewed staff research on an Employee Assistance Program for three employees and approved coverage at the recommended plan level (estimated $68.40 annually for three staff).

Staff noted multiple plan options in the packet and characterized the program as affordable and deeper than standard health insurance. Council members discussed cost, timing and prior alternatives; one member said the cost saves money relative to larger insurance expenses. "At the end of the day, it's about giving our staff everything that they could possibly need to effectively do their job," the chair said in support. The motion to approve the EAP plan passed five-zero.

Staff will implement the EAP coverage for the three staff members and return to council if any enrollment or budget adjustments are required.
