LAPD Officers Get Raise, But Not A DWP-Size Raise
The Daily New reports: "The Los Angeles City Council has approved a contract with the LAPD's union giving officers increases totaling 10.25 percent over three years - an agreement that officials hope will serve as a benchmark for other municipal unions."* * *
"Last year, it approved a five-year contract that gives Department of Water and Power workers raises totaling 16.2 percent, but contains escalator clauses that could boost salaries by 31 percent."

LAPD officer-higher raise
DWP employee (fall asleep parked around Northeast hills while on the clock)-should get lower raise
Mayor did opposite, why?
Better than anything he's offered the EAA.
This just goes to show what a bunch of assholes city council members really are and a loser Mayor LA has. This raise is a joke for LAPD officers. They get only 3% in one year for the shit they have to put up with. LA should be ashamed of itself. Why is it that other big cities in the US think more of their officers then the morons we're stuck with who don't give a shit about officers?????? And then they wonder why its hard to find recruits. THEY'RE TO BLAME
stop crying lapd. you wanted the job so except what comes with it! think of all the tax payer monies that went to resolve all of the litigation over the past 7 years! bad shootings-corruption.
go get another job if you don't like this one, what do you expect with the majority of the dept holding nothing more then a high school diploma!lausd diploma at that!
Actually the cops got a better raise, averaging 3.4 percent per year. The DWP one is 3.25 percent per year but can go up if cost of living is higher (I think max 6%). Maybe the LAPD should ask for COI based increases too next time?
