NOTES:
1. For projection purposes, it is assumed that sworn hiring will offset the attrition of 515 and add 265 officers to attain a
force of 9,735, including 99 officers funded by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Agency (LACMTA).
Sworn attrition assumptions factor in the impacts of DROP. For civilian staffing, it is assumed that hiring will counteract
288 out of 288 anticipated separations.
2. Salary adjustments for civilian and sworn employees are based on adopted Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
For these purposes, no salary adjustments beyond those negotiated to date are included in the annual cost. If salary
adjustments are made, the increase in cost is compounded in future years.
3. Projecting the source of funds for on-going years is not possible as State and Federal grants fluctuate significantly over
time. It is assumed, however, that the majority of these costs will be a General Fund expense except those reimbursed
by the LACMTA for 99 sworn officers ($14.29 million) and 26 civilians ($2.43 million) and the Local Public Safety Fund
($57.30 million) for 476 sworn officers.
4. Funding required is for direct costs and does not include increased funding levels that would be required for benefits.
