Re: Contract renewal
Dear Mr. Pierce,
On behalf of the Florida Keys SPCA, Inc., please renew our present contract for one year,
beginning July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2005.
We ask for the CPI increase of 1. 7% in view of our escalating health insurance costs for our
employees. In spite of a $2000.00 deductible per employee, we face a monthly increase from
$3152.83 to $4010.82 for insurance premiums. This represents a 27% increase for our next fiscal
year.
We appreciate your serious consideration of our request.
