8O0 January 22, 1996 The Mooresville Town Council met in special session on Monday, January 22, 1996, at the Mooresville Town Hall at 7:30 P.M. Council members present were Mark Mathis, Toby ~len, Jim Hensley, Andy Pypman, and Bill Wright. No members were absent. Motion was made by Councilman Hensley, second by Councilman Dolen to approve the minutes of the January 15, 1996 meeting. Motion passed unanimously. New business from the floor was the discussion of Public Employment Retirement Fund. Discussions with ~n Soel, Jerry Bates, and Karen Vise of the PERF Office, State of Indiana, had rev~led a misco~malnication between the Town ofMooresvilleand the PERFOffice. The previous Town Councillmd sidled a resolution stating the Town of Mooresville would pay the total 7.75% each pay, for each civilian employee. The actual amount turned out to be 10.75% total contribution, meaning the employee, by State Statute, would contribute 3% of each pay. There is another statute that states an amendment to the resolution could be made to say the employer, Town of Mooresville, could pay the 3% employee contribution plus 7.75% totaling 10.75% contribution each pay, if so desired. This 3% is an approximate extra $21,500 paid by the Town of Mooresville. Councilman ~gmanstated he felt the State of Indiana set up the former Town Council and he was for abandoning the PERF Plan and finding another retire- ment plan. Town Council President Mark Mathis said if the paper trail plus the Indiana Statutes were followed the 10.75% is there. An open discussion ensued between the Employees and the Council members. Motion was made by Councilman Hensley, second by Toby ~len, to keep the PERF Plan in effect and the Town of Mooresville will pay all of 10.75% contribution (the 7.75% plus 3% employee contribution) for the plan. Motion passed 4-1. Councilman Pygman voted no. Danny Tingle of the Waste Water Treatment Plant explained the yearly f----~ permit fee coming due to allow for the discharge of sewage during the year. Brent Callahan reported ordering a gazebo for the park. ~--'-~ Councilman Pygman reported the rebate of 5% State Sales Tax, State Excise, and Federal Excise taxes when buying gas and diesel fuel at Amoco and Crystal Flash. Town Council President Mark Mathis designated Councilman Pygman to set up accounts for the different departments at Amoco and Crystal Flash. Fire Chief, Darrell Brown, reported a huge tire build-up in the alley behind 39 West Main Street. This is zoned B-2. The problem will be turned over to the Zoning ~ard.
