Discussion and possible action regarding Resolution 2027 Calendar Year Employee Benefits. Commissioner Jacob McHughes stated the following regarding this item: I value our employees and understand the importance of providing competitive benefits for our people. My concern is not the employees. It's how we fund these long-term expenditures. We're looking at over $500,000 in additional expenditures, including health premiums and flex benefits inside that. We need to be careful about using one-time funds to cover expenses that will occur every year. For these reasons, I cannot support this resolution today. We have the responsibility of our employees and the taxpayers to ensure these commitments are sustainable.
