'!Tt <br /> --A"ENILLS <br /> Approved: <br /> CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA <br /> SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br /> NOVEMBER 5, 2018 <br /> 5:30 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS <br /> CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL <br /> Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Grant called to order the Special City <br /> Council Work Session at 5:30 p.m. <br /> Present: Mayor David Grant, Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Dave McClung, <br /> Fran Holmes and Steve Scott <br /> Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault, Finance Director Gayle Bauman, and <br /> Communications Coordinator Dawn Skelly <br /> 1.

For life insurance, the City paid coverage is <br /> $20,000. This is a little on the low side but within the $10,000 to $50,000 range. The City does <br /> pay for short and long term disability for employees. Employees are taxed on these amounts so <br />
