Local News in Brief : Los Alamitos : Council OKs Police Pay Increases of 6% to 8%
The City Council unanimously approved pay raises of 6% to 8% for its Police Department, City Manager Michael A. Graziano said Tuesday.
The council’s 5-0 vote in closed session Monday ends about 4 months of negotiations between the city and the Los Alamitos Police Officers Assn. over what the base salary will be for the rank-and-file members of the Police Department. The issue had been left open for negotiation under a 2-year contract that expires this year.
Under the agreement, police officers, corporals and sergeants will receive a 6% pay increase, and dispatchers and their supervisors will receive 8%, Graziano said. The raise is retroactive to last November.
