Transition of Administration Services and GRS Call Center
Dear members of the City of Coral Gables Retirement System:
Effective July 1, 2023, Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company (GRS) will become the full plan administrator/administrative manager for the City of Coral Gables Retirement System. The Retirement Board has elected to transition the administration services to a third-party service provider, and they have selected GRS. Edemir Estrada will be your primary contact person at GRS, and she will be supported by other staff, including Erin Jackson and Peter Tramont.
The official transition period will begin in April 2023, and GRS will open a call center to all members to answer any questions and assist with the retirement process. This call center will be open during GRS’ regular business hours, which are 8:30 to 5:00 PM Monday through Friday.
We encourage you to utilize the pension portal through PensionSoft to review your current benefits, run retirement benefit estimates, and review important announcements, board meeting minutes/agendas and other important information concerning the Retirement System.
During the transition period of April 1, 2023 through June 30, 2023, Kimberly Groome will continue to be available to answer questions, but we encourage you to reach out to GRS with your questions as well. Effective July 1, 2023, this call center and the pension portal will be the sources for all of your retirement system needs.
