TMRS Welcomes Three New Participating Cities
TMRS adds three new participating cities in November: Rio Hondo, Saint Hedwig, and Beverly Hills.
The Cameron County city of Rio Hondo is home to its iconic Yellow Bridge, which is the only lift bridge built in Texas between 1945 and 1960 and is still in operation today. The eastern Bexar County city of Saint Hedwig was settled by immigrants from upper Silesia in Prussian Poland. By 1890, this farming community was the largest Polish community in Texas. Finally, the City of Beverly Hills, located near Waco in McLennan County, proudly touts itself as “A Small City with Big Heart.”
With these additions, TMRS now has 915 participating cities.
City Contribution Reporting Goes Exclusively Online November 7
On November 7, city contribution reporting goes exclusively online.
The new online reporting function will make city contribution reporting easier.
To facilitate the transition to the new contribution reporting functionality, a city's October contribution report will not be accepted until November 7, when the new system will be available.
If you have questions or need assistance with city contribution reporting, please email CityPortal@tmrs.com or contact anyone below.
