TREASURER'S REPORT Commissioner Mahoney reported that the balance remains unchanged for the second consecutive month at $340.68. OLD BUSINESS Mayor Shepard gave an update on Group Insurance. He said at this time we could not self-insure, but the idea of the cities banning together to get better rates is being looked into. The problem with that is that each City has different types of coverage, so each City was asked to provide a list of benefits. Then these will all be coordinated, and a recommendation will be given to this Council. NEW BUSINESS There was no host presentation. There was discussion of what is happening in the County and what effect those actions will be on the Cities.
