ALL OF 2018 TO DECIDE
Those currently serving members who are eligible to opt into BRS, you have an important decision to make between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2018: You must decide whether to stay with your current retirement system or move to the BRS. Once you make your choice, you won’t be able to take it back, even if you change your mind before the 12/31/2018 deadline.
