DISCUSSION On February 21, 2006, Council approved a Memorandum'of Agreement(MOA)between the City and the SLOPSOA effective from July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2007. This MOA included a re- opener agreeing to meet and confer on a modification to the health insurance contribution for 2007. After two meetings, a tentative agreement was reached with SLOPSOA that reflects an equal cost sharing between the City and SLOPSOA of the average increase in premiums of medical plans available, experienced in 2005, 2006, and confirmed for 2007. The health insurance contribution for this group has not increased since December 2003. The details of the tentative agreement for a three-tiered cafeteria contribution are as follows: Effective Current December 2006 Employee Only $415 $470 Employee+l $754 $855 Family $995 $1133 The increase in the City's contribution is approximately 13%, while premiums have increased approximately 27%. Future contributions to health insurance premiums will be negotiated as part of the overall negotiations for a successor MOA in 2007. This increase in the health insurance contribution will help in attracting and retaining employees in this unit. As the City experiences more retirements and replaces those individuals with younger employees with families, maintaining a competitive health insurance contribution is critical. Council Agenda Report—San Luis Obispo Police Staff Officers' Association Page 2 Addendum to the Memorandum of Agreement FISCAL IMPACT The cost of the increase to the cafeteria plan contribution for fiscal year 2006-07 fiscal year is approximately $14,000. Funding for this is available within existing amounts projected for MOA adjustments in 2006-07. ALTERNATIVES Because the addendum complies with previous Council direction and demonstrates the City's and SLOPSOA's willingness and ability to craft a mutually satisfactory agreement in a timely and collaborative manner, no alternatives are presented for Council consideration.
