Flamino’s Insurance Change Sparks Board Debate
Flamino faced criticism from board members over an insurance change he made in August without union consent. Amalgamated Transit Union Local 89 head Ernest Orelli claimed the carrier cut retiree benefits, while Flamino defended the shift as saving $6,000 and not affecting Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage. He cited driver requests for larger life and disability coverage and noted no pursuit of a busing contract with the nearby school district due to federal guidelines.
