The Police budget usually has between $60,000 and $90,000 of overtime for anticipated outside hire. This is not always done. Note: In order to assist in generating salary savings, Fire held off in increasing their staffing at the new fire station over the last two years (FY 09 & 10). Also, Fire's budget is inflated by over $400,000 of anticipated outside hire overtime - to be used in a dry fire season when our fire staff contract with other federal/state agencies for fire support, which we get reimbursed for. In the last two years, they have done very little outside support because the fire seasons were less intense in the summer. Note: In FY 08, there were a significant number of retirements right near fiscal year end. There was not enough time for the offices to absorb the resulting payoffs of sick and vacation time. Police generated $130,294 of the overexpenditure due to their many retirements. Fire generated an additonal $88,742 of overexpenditure for the same reasons as Police.
