[Adopted 11-14-1974 by Ord. No. 129]
Pursuant to Act # 27 of the Public Acts of 1960, as amended,
the Township of Paw Paw hereby creates and establishes a group insurance
plan covering life, health, hospitalization, medical and surgical
service and expense and accident insurance for its officers and employees
enumerated herein, and their dependents, and for such purposes, also
hereby authorizes the Township supervisor and the Township Clerk to
contract, in the name of the Township, subject to approval of the
Township Board, with any company authorized to transact such business
within the State of Michigan for such group insurance policies.
The Township of Paw Paw shall annually contribute 100% of the portion of the premium or charges arising under such life insurance contract for each person within the class of persons enumerated in § 28-20. Additionally, the Township of Paw Paw shall annually contribute no per centum of that portion of the premium or charges under such health, hospitalization, medical and surgical service and expense and accident insurance contract for each person within the class of persons enumerated in § 28-20. Such Township contribution shall be secured from the general fund of the Township. Each person within such class shall be responsible for the remainder of the premium or charges not paid for by the Township and the Township treasurer is hereby authorized to deduct the same from such person's pay, salary or compensation to apply to such person's responsibility. Any person desiring not to be so covered shall give written notice to the Township Clerk that he desires not to be insured or covered, and if the notice is received before the person has become insured or covered under the contract, he shall not be covered thereunder. If the notice is received after the individual has become insured or covered, his coverage under the contract shall cease as provided for in the contract.
