No FOP agreements on July council agenda

On June 22, Pensacola Mayor Ashton Hayward announced he had reached tentative agreements concerning future compensation and benefits with the Police Officer, Sergeant, and Lieutenant bargaining units represented by the Fraternal Order of Police. He gave no details.

The council agenda for the July 19 meeting was released last night. The tentative agreements are not on agenda for the Pensacola City Council to approve.

FOP officials have said the mayor agreed to 10 percent raises for officers, sergeants and lieutenants in the first year, followed by 4 percent raises each year after that in the three-year agreement. However, the actual agreements have not been released to the media and public.

The next regular council meeting is August 9.
