AGENDA STATEMENT

Item No. 5.I.
For Meeting of: November 17, 2015

ITEM TITLE:Resolution authorizing a letter of agreement clarifying post-retirement VEBA contribution language with the Yakima Police Management Unit represented by Teamsters Local #760
SUBMITTED BY: Connie Mendoza, Director of Human Resources
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
The Current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2018 Appendix "A" Sick Leave Exchanged contains post-retirement separation from employment HRA VEBA contributions. Subsequent to the ratification and execution of the current Agreement, the third party administrator (TPA) for the HRA VEBA plan notified the City of non-compliant language pertaining to sick leave exchange. In order to bring the Agreement into compliance with Internal Revenue Service rules governing health reimbursement arrangements (HRA's), the language must be modified. This language change is strictly a housekeeping measure and has no financial impact to either party.
