plans will not increase. The employee shall pay any increased amount above the
City's contribution caps.
3. Part Time Employee Contributions
Part-time employees hired after July 1, 2006, shall receive a pro -rated amount of the
City's contribution rate as established for full-time employees based on the
employee's work schedule, either fifty percent (50%) for half-time (1/2) or seventy-
five percent (75%) for three-quarter time (3/4).

5. The dental insurance maximum coverage is two thousand dollars ($2,000.00) per
year.

have any and all the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA)
benefits as well as Cal -COBRA (AB1401) to which the law entitles them.
D. Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance
Each employee shall be provided with fifty -thousand dollars ($50,000.00) of life
insurance and fifty -thousand dollars ($50,000.00) of accidental death and
dismemberment insurance coverage paid for by the City. Each employee shall have the
option, at his/her own expense, to purchase additional amounts of life insurance and
accidental death and dismemberment insurance to the extent provided by the City's
current providers.
E. Long Term Disability Insurance (LTD)
The City shall provide for each employee at the City's expense a long term disability
insurance plan. The parties agree to exclude the first year of job related illness or injury
from coverage on condition that the plan provides for a coordination with Sick Leave,
General Leave and holidays which is satisfactory to the Association. A copy of the LTD
insurance plan may be obtained from the Human Resources Office.
The intent of long term disability insurance is to assist employees who are off work for an
extended period of time. While long term disability benefits can be coordinated with
accrued leave benefits to achieve one hundred percent (100%) of regular rate of pay, no
employee may receive more than their regular rate of pay while receiving disability
benefits and paid leave.
F. Medical Cash -Out
Group health insurance for this unit is provided by Teamsters Miscellaneous Security
Trust Fund. If an employee obtains approval from the Teamsters Miscellaneous Security
Trust Fund to suspend medical and prescription benefits, they may receive medical
cash -out. The amount of cash -out is equal to the City's contribution to the lowest cost
employee -only medical premium offered to this unit, less fifty dollars ($50.00) for life
insurance and mental health/substance abuse benefits.
Evidence of approved suspension must be submitted to the Human Resources
Department. Medical cash -out would commence the beginning of the first pay period
