The Beverly Hills City Council signaled unanimous support for a 14% base salary raise over the next three years for the city’s police department, which would make the city’s officers the highest paid in Southern California. With the Council’s sign-off, the city will have additional discussions with the unions representing officers and then bring the matter back before Council for discussion and likely adoption on May 24.
“From my perspective, Beverly Hills should be number one. And I think, as we’ve seen, we need to do everything we can to recruit the best of the best and recruit quickly,” said Mayor Lili Bosse, who added the matter to the May 10 City Council agenda.
