PURPOSE OF THE MEETING:
CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION - EMPLOYEE'S HOSPITALIZATION fii LIFE` I-NSURANCE�BID NO.
B73-1.
City Manager Wolff recommended to the City Council that all bids be rejected and that the
City continue our present coverage for both the employees and dependents with the
Republic National Life Insurance Company, the present carrier for a period of twelve months.
Mr. Wolff stated that his recommendation was based on the fact that all bids received
required that 75% of the employee's dependents must be covered and in the case of the City
of Pearland only 62% are presently covered. The Republic National has agreed
to continue the present coverage subject to an approximate 25% increase in premium with
a $25.00 deductible clause attached to the policy. This increase was requested due to
the loss experience during the past year.
.It was moved by Councilman Sanders, seconded by Councilman Wasek that all bids f
i
i
received on Bid No. B73-1 be rejected and the the Group Hospitalization & Life
coverage for City employees be continued with the existing carrier, the Republic National
Life Insurance Company. Motion passed 3 to 0.

REQUEST BY PLANNING COMMISSION TO CHANGE NAME OF KATRINA DRIVE IN SLEEPY HOLLOW
SUBDIVISION TO WOODCREEK DRIVE:
The Planning Commission requested that the City Council change the name of Katrina Drive
in Sleepy Hollow to Woodcreek Drive. This request was made by the Commission since
Woodcreek Drive would extend into what is presently called Katrina Drive which if
continued under the same name would create a continuous street with two names. The
developers of Woodcreek agreed to name one street Crane which continued into Crane
in Sleepy Hollow.
It was moved by Councilman Reid, seconded by Councilman Griffin that the name of
Katrina Drive in Sleepy Hollow be changed to Woodcreek Drive. Motion passed 4 to 0.
