A lengthy discussion followed on new cost figures for Wayne County Workers Compensation Plan. Town Attorney Anthony Villani and Supervisor Hammond met with
Keith Kubasik to review the formula used. They use an anticipated budget, benefits, reserve and overhead. Participants pay 25% of payroll cost, 25% of respective assessment of real property in the town. The charges to Macedon were as follows:
2009 $135,970
2010 $266,130
2011 $418,987
Charges are based on a three (3) year loss experience with number of claims generating the rate. The Town of Macedon had two (2) employees hurt with large claims. One employee was hurt while working on a county road. Coverage by the County under the hold harmless is being pursued. The Board feels the County should pick up this employee retroactive. Buy out cost from this plan would be $55,130. At the meeting the Attorney and Supervisor were told the premium would not be required if they opted to pay the buy out from the plan for $55,130. Other options for workers compensation are being evaluated.
Attorney Villani cautioned the Board to be aware of WCIDA’s new procedure of offering a pilot program to a business already built versus a new project. It was questioned why the business should get a tax break for something already in the ground.
It was the consensus of the Town Board not to loan out tables and chairs due to liability.
ABSTRACT NO. 8-10
Claim Nos. 22540-22543 Expenditures in the amount
$248,937.50
RESOLUTION NO. 186 (10) PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
RESOLVED the bills be paid as audited.
