OUTCOMES:
Key highlights from the Quarterly Overtime Report include the following:
• Citywide overtime costs total $7.5 million and are 24.9% ahead of budget expectations.
• Total Salaries, including regular salaries and overtime, are trending 3.3% or $6.07 million under budget.
• Fire Department overtime costs total $5.3 million and are trending 22.6% ahead of budget expectations primarily driven by firefighter backfill while new recruits attend the Fire Academy.
• Police Department overtime costs total $1.54 million and are trending 51.8% ahead of budget expectations primarily driven by significant position vacancies resulting in regular salary savings of $1.32 million.
• All Other Departments’ overtime costs total $663 thousand and are trending 3.5% ahead of budget expectations, driven, in part, by staffing at special events, lack of need for winter storm response, and the Right of Way (ROW) inspection workload, which has been in excess of what can be completed in a regular work week.
