Council Report 2000-67
APPROVE 2000 HOPKINS MUNICIPAL
EMPLOYEES' ASSOCIATION CONTRACT
Proposed Action
Staff recommends that the Council approve the following motion: Move approval of the 2000 Contract for
the Hopkins Municipal Employees' Association, HMEA.
This action will ratify the 2000 contract for the clerical and technical employees.
Overview
The contract calls for a 1 % wage increase effective January 1,2000 and a 3% wage increase effective July
L 2000. There is an increase of$30.00 per month for health, life, and dental insurance.
Pdmary Issues to Consider
.
How does this agreement fit in with the 2000 budget?
The City budgeted 2.5% for cost of living adjustments and $10.00 per month for benefit increases. The
total cost of the proposed settlement is approximately $7,000 more than what was budgeted. The
difference is due to the $30.00 per month increase in insurance costs. The City experienced dramatic
increases in health insurance costs after the budget was put together. The additional $20.00 per month is
not umeasonable given the insurance increase. The additional money will come from contingency
funds.
.
How does this agreement compare to other contract settlements for 2000 in terms of wage and benefit
increases?
Settlements for other cities have generally been in the range of 3%. The $30.00/month increase in
insurance is in the range of increases in other cities.
. What is the Unifollll Settlement Fonn?
The Uniform Settlement Forn1 is a form mandated by the state of Minnesota that must be presented to
the City Council which each contract settlement. The increase shown on this form may differ from the
percentage increase listed above because the settlement fom1 contains such items as benefit increases,
the increase in social security and state pension due to the wage increases, and any step increases which
individual union members may receive during the course of the contract. It is presented for your
infonnation.
Financial Impact: $ $61,000 Budgeted: YIN Yes Source: General Fund
