It will be a complicated and confusing process. Employees of VCCD are government employees. Benefits will change. For instance, employees will not pay SS, but will be able to put money into a tax deferred 401. The VCCD does not match employee contributions to the 401. It is not obvious how a government employee can legally service a private enterprise such as the championship golf courses. It is one thing for a government to contract out work to private companies, but something entirely different for a private company to hire government employees. It is also not obvious how a government employee can legally accept preferential discounts at the country club. I am sure the developer has thought through the process, but I hope the ACC is looking at it with eyes wide open.
