All full-time and part-time regular employees of the City are eligible. Eligible employees can elect to participate by contributing pre-tax dollars withheld from payroll checks to the Plan for health and dental care, dependent care, life insurance premiums, and disability insurance benefits. Payments are made from the Plan to participating employees upon submitting a request for reimbursement of eligible expenses actually incurred by the participant. Before the beginning of the plan year,which is from January 1 to December 31,each participant designates a total amount of pre-tax dollars to be contributed to the Plan during the year. At December 31,the City is contingently liable for claims against the total amount of participants' annual contributions to the health and dental care portion of the Plan,whether or not such contributions have been made. The City serves as trustee and utilized the service of Total Administrative Services Corporation (TASC) - Genesis to handle all plan record keeping. The Plan is included within the General Fund in the financial statements. All property of the Plan and income attributable to that property is solely the property of the City subject to the claims of the City's general creditors. Participants'rights under the Plan are equal to those of general creditors of the City in an amount equal to the eligible healthcare and dependent care expenses incurred by the participants. The City believes that it is unlikely that it will use the assets to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the future.
