§ 2-854. Dependent's life insurance.

In addition to other group life insurance provided for in section 2-848, the mayor and council are authorized to contract for group life insurance on the dependents of officers and employees in such amounts as provided for in the respective insurance plans, for the benefit of officers and employees, or in such amounts as the mayor and council may from time to time deem proper, provided that the full payment for dependent's life insurance shall be contributed by such officers and employees who elect coverage for their dependents. No officer or employee shall be compelled to take such additional insurance on dependents, but if the officer or employee elects to do so the chief financial officer shall be authorized to deduct the contributions of such officer or employee so insured if the officer or employee is an employee of the city.
