Dear VCCCDRA Retirees,
MEETING ON FEBRUARY 5 FOR VCCCDRA RETIREES TO DISCUSS AND REVIEW THE DISTRICT CALPERS HEALTHCARE PROPOSAL
Please plan to attend a meeting presented by the VCCCDRA Exec Board and the VCCCDRA Benefits Committee to discuss and review the District CalPERS healthcare proposal. The purpose of the meeting will be for the Benefits Committee to share with retirees a comparison of the CalPERS healthcare plans to our current Anthem Blue Cross and Kaiser plans, and other related matters.
The meeting will take place on Wednesday, February 5, 2020 starting at 1:00 p.m. at the Wright Event Center, 57 Day Road, Ventura, CA, which is located at the southeast corner of the Ventura College campus at the corner of Day Road and Telegraph Road. There is parking right in front of the building.
Retirees have been asking questions by email too numerous and too specific to handle by email. Our goal will be to try to answer questions as they relate to the specific situation of the various categories of retirees.
FORMATION OF VCCCDRA AD HOC LEGAL COMMITTEE
We are in the process of forming a VCCCDRA Ad Hoc Legal Committee for the purpose of reviewing the need to bring legal action against the District should that become necessary in regard to our healthcare benefits.
We need to be ready to make a decision should the District decide to take unilateral action in this matter.
Anyone interested in serving on this committee please let me know by responding to this email (vcccdra@gmail.com) or letting me know at the meeting described above on February 5.
Rene G. Rodriguez
President, VCCCDRA
