(District 1)
It was moved by Supervisor Elías and seconded by Supervisor Miller to not implement the Nicotine/Tobacco-Free Healthy Workforce Initiative, to adopt the base medical insurance rates for the PPO and HDHP absent the tobacco surcharge, and approve the HSA contributions from the County Administrator's February 24, 2015 Memorandum. Upon roll call vote, the motion carried 4-1, Supervisor Valadez voted "Nay."
