Fellow members,

I want to thank all of our members who attended the city council meeting last night. We had an excellent turnout. I would say there were over 200 cops present. I know the turnout certainly got the attention of the city council. Eric, Keith, and I will continue to meet with council members and attend the budget hearings. Every Monday at 4:00 there will be a budget meeting for the month of June. The budget must be passed by June 30. I can’t say for sure if we will get our range adjustment but I know if we didn’t have the turnout we did last night there is no way we would get the raise.

Thanks again for all your support.

Rick Armstrong
