Raises Segal's hourly rate to $420 and extends its benefits consulting to June 2029

The Segal Company will keep advising the district and its Health Benefits Governance Board, which oversees employee health benefits, for three more years, through June 30, 2029. Its hourly rate rises from $400 to $420 starting July 1, 2026. The spending limits stay the same: up to $201,000 per year and $603,000 for the term, and no money is added by this amendment.

Plain-English summary written by AI from the official text. Reviewed Oct 4, 2026

Discrepancy from the official text. The text keeps a $603,000 total for the term while extending the term by three years; the original agreement caps pay at $201,000 per year, so it is unclear whether the $603,000 total applies to the extended term. (Confirmed by a reviewer.)
