Personnel Committee 9-29-2026

The City of Green Bay Personnel Committee met September 29, 2026. For employee benefits effective January 1, 2027, staff and benefits partner USI presented recommendations following RFPs involving the family savings plan and pharmacy benefits manager. The recommendations included changes to those arrangements, a 10% increase in retiree premiums, a 27% increase in COBRA premiums, and a 5% increase for Delta Dental. The committee was told the package would keep the city’s projected budget increase to about 1%, compared with roughly 13% without the changes, and avoid an estimated $875,000 in city costs. Staff also recommended adjusting short-term disability coverage and continuing the premium holiday; the transcript records a motion and second to approve the benefits item, but does not clearly capture the vote outcome.
