Raise in Pay for Police and Firemen Proposed
The Board of Estimate Finance Committee debated funding a 10 percent salary raise for police and firemen starting July 1. Officials examined department payroll accruals and bond options but found Fire $15,000 and Police $89,000 accrued funds insufficient. Special revenue bonds cannot cover the raise, and mayoral plans to abolish “useless” positions were dismissed as ridiculous amid civil service protections.
