The amounts are fixed and will be taken starting on either the first paycheck of the calendar year or the first paycheck after activating the deduction in ESS. Please see instructions below.
In addition to purchasing a membership online via ESS for city employees, we are now proud to announce that we are fully digital for memberships. Anyone can purchase or renew a membership online through our new membership portal, and even save your Membership ID to your Apple or Google Wallet! Click below to get started!
