Health Insurance

In plain words

This matter is about health insurance for the County and the School Division.¹ On September 11, 2025, the Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 to let staff advertise a request for proposals for Health Insurance.¹ That motion called for the County Attorney to perform final review of the document first.¹ At the March 2, 2026 meeting, the records list a motion to deny all proposals received by the County for Health Insurance services.² They also list a motion to accept the FY27 Local Choice Health Insurance Renewal Rates as proposed for active employees.³ The Joint Finance Committee agenda for March 26, 2026 includes a multi-jurisdictional health insurance consortium update.⁴
