Mr. Clardy said that when the insurance policy was renewed with Connecticut General Life ns^urance Company, effective Sept.l, 1973, there was an 4.ncreased premium of 10^. Apparently, neither our Personnel Department in making up the estimated premiums to be paid monthly Sf^S-;-..;Sid r d. this increase, nor did the insurance company become aware of the difference until shortly before June 1, 197^. From that time, the District paid the increased amoimt, but from 9/l/73 to 6/1/7^ the District owes the insurance company the $25,06l.8l difference. This money would normally be'made up of employees' and District contributions. The District does have available monies refunded from the General American Life nsurance Company, a prior contract holder, which is in a similar proportion. The Personnel Department requests that this payment be authorized from these funds. (Copy in Secretary-Treasurer's File.)

11 1. Mr. Mattei said that the District had a supplement made for inclusion in the major newspapers at the time of its 10th Anniversary.,, We also had a number printed for other distributions and uses. The 20th Anniversary is upon us and we would like to do about the same thing, but with the extra copies made into booklets instead of merely newspaper supplements. The cost of printing the newspaper supplements and insertion in the paper would be about $15,500, and the moderate priced booklet version would be $ ' - There -was, some little discussion during which Mr-. Braun stated. that the printing would be done by a small newspaper, and that there were three prices for the booklet version which would be 20 pages plus a cover. The low price would be about $5360 for 10,000 copies (see Secretary-Treasurer's File) and would have one cover only, with only fair quality paper. The mod- -erate price,which he recommended, was a two-color throughout with good stock at $ for 10,000 copies. The higher price, with four colors throughout,.would be $12, for the same number of copies. He felt that the slight.difference was certainly justified between the low and moderate prices, since the quality would be much improved,- but not for the higher price. Motion made by'mr.
