Section 2-30 Insurance coverage for Councilmembers.
(a) Each member of the City Council shall be eligible, at the Councilmember's option, to participate in the City's group health insurance program. The City will fund the cost of the participation of each Councilmember electing participation, and each Councilmember shall have the option of having his family residing in his household covered under such program, with the cost of such coverage for family members being paid by the Councilmember. Each Councilmember's eligibility for participation in the group health insurance program will end when the Councilmember ceases to hold office, but each such Councilmember will have the option of converting his group health insurance coverage to an individual plan under the same terms and conditions as any City employee under the group health insurance program in effect at the time the Councilmember leaves office. (b) Each member of the City Council will be afforded ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) group term life insurance coverage with the cost of such coverage to be paid by the City. Each Councilmember so covered shall select the beneficiary or beneficiaries of such policy issued pursuant to this section. Each Councilmember's eligibility for participation in the group term life insurance program will end when the Councilmember ceases to hold office. (c) Each Councilmember will be covered by the City workers' compensation insurance program under the same terms and conditions as City employees and each Councilmember will be deemed an employee of the City for purposes of that program only; provided further, however, that such workers' compensation coverage will be in effect for each member of the City Council only at such times as the Councilmember is engaged in an activity as part of his official duties as a Councilmember, including travel to and from the place of carrying out such official duties. (Code 1958, 2-14)
