  • 25 years of credited service

New Employees (Hired after April 1, 2012)

Employees who reach normal retirement are eligible to get a monthly retirement with a multiplier of 3.63 percent of Final Average Compensation for credited service through March 31, 2012 and 3 percent for every year of creditable service after March 31, 2012.

The pension plan is managed by a five-member board of trustees, who serve two year terms.  They establish the investment policies of the plan, determine the plan administrators, and select professionals who serve.
