the PBA for administration of the dental plan. He went on to
explain that the PEA has indicated that the dental insurance
carrier prefers to receive the monthly payments directly from
the Town rather than from the PEA and, in view of this fact
and since assumption of this responsibility will not increase
any cost to the Town, he is presenting a memorandum of
agreement which amends that section of the collective
bargaining agreement with respect to dental insurance.
On motion by Councilwoman Price, seconded by Councilwoman
Silverstone, it was unanimously
RESOLVED that this Board hereby .
authorizes the Town Administrator
to execute the memorandum of
agreement which amends the section
