So does the contact supersede the template? I have flapping turned off on the user and both of the templates have flapping turned on. We are not receiving flaps during or after business hours.

Usually the contact does override the template, but if you have not set any notification options on the contact, the settings should revert to the template. Try setting the notifications to skip as that means there will be no explicit declaration in the config. This allows for the particular host or service to inherit definitions from templates.
