While the change to a 3-tier option reduced the cost for employees with 1 dependent, the 1997 biweekly rates for employees with 2 or more dependents increased 35% for HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) participants and 31 % for those in the pas (Point of Service) Plan. In 1989, the City established a Premium Stabilization Fund which has grown to $4,076,031, as of July 31,1997. The Fund was established to guard against future health care costs. On August 22, 1996, the Insurance Committee, representing the City's four employee unions and SAMP (Supervisory, Administrative, Managerial, and Professional) personnel, recommended the City use part of the Fund to offset % the increased cost of health insurance coverage for employees with 2 or more dependents during calendar year 1997. The City Commission approved that recommendation for 1997. ,;J~ '.~i On May 30, 1997, the Insurance Committee recommended continuing the health insurance premium subsidy from the Premium Stabilization Fund for employees with 2 or more dependents plus any increase to the subsidy up to 2.6% for calendar year 1998. The City's insurance consultant, Wittner & Company, negotiated a 1.5% rate increase for 1998. Concern was expressed the balance of the Premium Stabilization Fund has varied dramatically in the past. It was noted health insurance companies refund premiums, which are deposited into the Fund, only after the City cancels a policy. Finance Director Margie Simmons said insurance premiums are budgeted before the rates are negotiated and firm. The large 1995, fund increase resulted from an annual premium increase that was lower than budgeted. Deputy City Manager Kathy Rice said use of the Premium Stabilization Fund has been limited to this purpose. . Commissioner Clark moved to approve the continued use of the Premium Stabilization Fund to offset %- of the biweekly premium for employees with 2 or more dependents for the 1-year period, January 1, 1998, through December 31, 1998, ($141,888) and to offset the 1.5% ($32,064) biweekly premium increase for calendar year 1998 at an estimated total cost of $173,952, resulting in a ~o- increase in employee health insurance deductions for calendar year 1998 and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously.

Slip rents for Permanent Private Vessels and weekly Transient Vessels will not be increased. The proposed increase in Commercial Vessel slip rents is reflected in the Marina Business Plan. The proposed increases are posted at the Marina and were listed in the July 1997, issue of the newsletter; Scuttlebutt. On August 13, 1997, the MAB (Marina Advisory Board) recommended approval of these increases. Kiven Hopper questioned why the rent on Marina parasail slips will increase by 50%. Harbormaster Bill Held said last year's survey indicated the Marina's parasail slip rates were much lower than standard area rates. Mr. Hopper said rates are lower at the. Quality Inn and St. Petersburg Pier. In response to a question, Mr. Held said passenger levels for Marina tenants are frozen at current levels due to insufficient parking. In response to a question; he said 6 parasail operations have been approved for beach locations. The consultant was able to obtain rental rate information from only one of these locations. He estimated parasail operations average 6 trips a day during the week and twice that on weekends. He said other commercial vessels make fewer trips. In response to a question, he said the proposed increases were included in the Marina Business Plan approved by the City Commission last year. (~ ~lftfI Commissioner Clark reported he has a family member employed by a Marina business. Mr. Held said the Marina Business Plan also includ6s an across the board 5% increase for FY (fiscal year) 1998/99. The Marina has received requests for additional parasail slips. Sheila Cole opposed the increase as she believes it will hurt businesses operating out of the Marina. Commissioner Johnson moved to increase the Commercial Vessel Slip Rent by 5 %, except for Special Purpose (ParasaiJ) vessel slip rent, which will be increased by 50%, and to increase daily Transient Vessel Slip Rent from $0.90 to $1-foot, per day, and monthly Transient Vessel Slip Rent from $11 to $ 13-foot, per month, at Clearwater Municipal Marina. The motion was duly seconded. In response to a question, Mr. Held said operators can enter agreements with owners of waterfront, commercially zoned property and request a Conditional Use from the Planning & Zoning Board for a parasail operation on private property. He did not know if the Planning & Zoning Board had denied any similar requests. There is no current limit to the number of parasai! operations allowed. All boats are required to have licensed captains. Concern was expressed Marina slips should not be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Commission direction to charge the market rate was noted.

It was suggested the parasail issue be addressed separately. It was recommended the Commission trust Mr. Held's professional judgment regarding this issue. l. ' '.., In response to a question, Mr. Held said parasail vessels operate in Clearwater Harbor and the Gulf of Mexico. Concern was expressed the number of parasail operations on the beach would increase if Marina parasail slip rates are raised. Mr. Held indicated beach parasail operations require extensive liability insurance coverage.
