What was Pensacola Police Union offered


The Independent News obtained through a public record request the latest offer before the Fraternal Order of Police.

The tentative agreement gave all the officers a one-time payment of $5,000 upon ratification, an additional $5,000 on Oct. 1, 2013 and an across-the-board pay increase of 3 percent added to their base salary on Oct. 1, 2014.

The employees that elected to remain in the existing Police Pension Plan would have had their pension contributions increased from half of one percent to 5.2 percent (which is still less than half with the firefighters contribute).

Here is the one-page proposal: FOP
