Motion by Mrs. Piper, seconded by Mr. Bath.
VOTE: Mrs. Piper: Aye, Mr. Bath: Aye, Mr. Fetters: Aye, Mr. Gilmore: Aye,
Mrs. Lehman: Aye. Approved.
03-158 Recommend revision in Workers Compensation/Severance Fund funding package.
SEVERANCE FUND
WHEREAS, the Celina City Board of Education, in 1984, established a Severance Trust Fund; the primary source of income for this fund was Board of Education approved transfers:
WHEREAS, in 1987, the State of Ohio decreed that the transfer of non-general funds without a court order was improper; therefore, the Board of Education determined that an alternative funding method must be developed.
WHEREAS, the Celina City Board of Education, determined that a percentage of payroll would be the fairest and most equitable way to fund the severance liability.
WORKERS COMPENSATION
WHEREAS, the Celina City Board of Education, in 1991, established membership in a Workers Compensation Group and later established a separate fund to account for the workers compensation fund activity;
WHEREAS, the contribution rate will be established based upon a percentage of payroll.
THEREFORE, the Celina City Board of Education, determines the following percentage
charges necessary to fund the ongoing liability of these two funds.
The Celina City Board of Education, not wanting to increase expenses of the district, declares that the current two- percent will not be increased. However, the percentage allowed to each fund is hereby changed.
THEREFORE, the Celina City Board of Education hereby declares and establishes the following percentage contribution rates for all payrolls paid after October 1, 2003. The Workers Compensation fund contribution will be increased from zero percent to one percent because of the elimination of discounts provided by the Bureau of Workers Compensation. The Severance Fund will be decreased to one percent from the current two-percent. In addition, because of our incentive programs, and staff eligibility, the Celina City Board of Education realizes that additional funding may be needed to maintain the integrity of the Severance Fund. The Board, if required, will provide additional funds from the General Fund in the form of Board approved transfers.
The Workers Compensation and Severance Fund will be evaluated and reviewed on an on-going basis. Proposed rate adjustments, if necessary, will be forwarded to the Board for approval.
Motion by Mr. Bath, seconded by Mr. Gilmore.
