Odessa raises boost city pay with 6 3 and 2 percent raises
Raise increases target officers and city workers with a two stage plan: April 1 raises of 6 percent for corporals 3 percent for sergeants and 2 percent for others, plus a 5 percent addition on Oct 1 for all officers and city employees including firefighters. Officers now tie Midland at 3383 monthly and lead Wichita Falls Abilene Amarillo but trail Lubbock. Thompson, with the department since September, says the raise reduces overtime and boosts family time, while a firefighter criticizes the overall size of the gains. Five firefighters withdrew a civil service act petition, while the Police Officers Association pursues a higher 18 percent raise. Chief Deitz says a meeting will disclose details. Thompson plans to use extra money to repair his home.
