To follow up on Raelyn's post, yes, Sac county retirees could come out here and work under the PERS reitrement formula (2% @ 55 for all CSD employees); however, if you had a retiree from a PERS agency, they would in fact become a "retired annuitant" and be limited to about 900 hours per year. Some of those PERS retirees also are eligible to draw Social Security and SS places a cap on annual earnings withoput affecting one's benefits.
Those who might be interested would be the 50-ish retirees, not those receiving Social Security, so the last part is probably N/A. However, depending upon what RMA does re outsourcing security (even if just the gate ops), it would mean a lot of current CSD gate officers would become "surplus" should RMA opt for an outside provider.
That's why both RMA and CSD need to work together to resolve this issue once and for all to minimize negative impcts on all concerned. Looking at what the community wants and needs in Security now and into the foreseeable future is most critical, NOT merely suggesting it would only take about $1000 a month per officer to get a P.D. out here. How long do you think it would take Lafco to concur, negotiate, etc., before a real decsion was made?
