The Pulaski County Council has approved funding arrangements for the change in the county’s workers’ compensation coverage. The county was dropped by the Indiana Public Employers’ Plan, leading the county commissioners to choose a policy using the state pool last month.
Auditor Laura Wheeler told the county council Monday that the new provider demanded a down payment in December, and there wasn’t enough money in the line item. Council members agreed to transfer $7,400 between line items in the commissioners’ budget to cover the cost.
