OUTCOMES:
Each quarter City staff reviews overtime statistics with Council. Overtime expenditures between
January 1, 2021 and March 31, 2021 are 9.2% above budget. The overage is reduced to 4.9% after excluding reimbursable overtime costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Overtime is running high due, in part, to the winter snow event. The report will be reviewed in further detail with Council.
During Council deliberations for the 2021-2022 Budget, there was a request for follow-up information and discussion about overtime costs for Public Safety. The Public Safety Overtime Report provides information about the drivers for overtime and the results of analysis focused on determining the cost benefit of hiring additional staff versus paying overtime costs. The findings will be presented to Council.
