With July's paycheck, it's a great time to review your paystubs for accuracy which we hope you do monthly!
Please check your comp and vacation banks, ensure your hourly pay is correct, your merit pay is accurate, and all insurance deductions are what they should be!
I have attached a link to the contract (paylines & merit pay) and the insurance premium document for your reference.

Please also remember that STAN/SLEBC Dues are 1.5% of the starting monthly wage of a Step 1 Trooper ($81.90)
Also, beginning July 1st, your retirement contributions will reduce from 16% (Tier 1) or 17% (Tier 2) to 10% for everyone, so please ensure this is correct as well.
Reminder: The state does not notify STAN/SLEBC of any address changes or life events such as birth, marriage, adoption, divorce, etc.. You need to notify me as soon as possible so that we can get the changes made in a timely manner.
Bargaining for the 2025-2027 contract will also begin soon. If you have ideas or suggestions for the bargaining team, please send the suggestions to: bargainingteam(a)groups.netroopers.org<mailto:bargainingteam@groups.netroopers.org>
Thank you,

Hello STAN Members,
Please see the proposed amended STAN By-Laws linked below. If this passes, the amendment will remove the annual dues for retirees. This also removes some of the benefits, such as voting rights beyond voting for their STAN Board Representative.
The Board was requested to review the retiree dues amount (now set at $60/year) by Retiree Representative Scott Black. The retirees pay their dues year after year as an active Trooper and many of these retirees are not members past their employment. Currently, we have 64 retired members with approximately 450 in total eligible. The goal of this amendment is to continue to keep retirees in the "loop" with any information that might pertain to them available through STAN. Scott has gone to a lot of work gathering contact information for each retiree or their surviving spouse. Keeping retirees involved is important to many.
Below in red is the proposed amendment and here is the link to the current by-laws: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dujjQZ6NHlvB3cTLFsq9waOuDiDuJjHT/view?usp=…

Please reply to this email or contact a STAN Representative with any questions.
Thank you,
