The Town Manager reviewed the status of the Coalition Bargaining Agreement on health
insurance.
Selectman Camille Anthony asked if we consider charging more for the PPO than the HMO.
The Town Manager noted that can be done legally but that'there is such a small cost differential
between the two on this current program that there is nothing to be gained from doing this. The
Board asked that we have discussion in January about health insurance.
