County staff presented the flexible spending account (FSA) plan, which will also serve as the county's Section 125 cafeteria plan and provide pre-tax benefit options for employees. The presenter said the materials are intended to meet IRS expectations and that staff made adjustments to add FSAs for the open-enrollment period.
The presenter reported roughly 40 employees chose to participate during open enrollment and the group redirected about $30,000 from taxable income into pretax dollars; staff estimated tax savings in the neighborhood of 20 to 25 percent for participating employees on that amount. Commissioners thanked staff and approved the plan as presented.
The approved documents will be put on file and used to administer pre-tax benefits going forward.
