Solano Community College will consider laying off its police officers next semester, possibly considering private security guards for some or all of campus security.
Police staff received an email in late November from a representative of their union, informing police staff of the possible layoff. “I don’t see eliminating the campus police officers being the solution to saving a few cents, which won’t be worth all the downside and the negative ramifications,” said senior SCC police officer Joe Ramos, and Stationary Engineers Union Local 39 member.
