City Council Meeting Meeting Minutes January 20, 2026
On November 18, 2025, the Mayor and City Council passed Resolution No. 25-32, a resolution
approving and authorizing the"Intergovernmental Agreement between Maricopa County and the
City of Apache Junction for Annexation and Permitting of Meridian Road", in which the city
partnered with Maricopa County to facilitate the conveyance and city annexation of Maricopa
County's Meridian Drive right-of-way between Elliot Avenue and Ray Avenue on the west side of
the street.
Subsequently, on December 10, 2025, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors approved and
authorized their execution of the same Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA), fulfilling the A.R.S.
requirements noted above necessary for the right-of-way transfer from the county to the city. To
complete this process and the IGA, Planning Staff has prepared Ordinance No. 1570 as the
formal annexation ordinance expanding the city's boundaries to include the identified
right-of-way.
Due to the length of the legal descriptions and map exhibits of the annexed area, the
corresponding portion of the ordinance has been made a separate document, titled "Legal
Descriptions and Map Exhibits of the P-25-104-AM Meridian Drive Annexation". Planning Staff
has prepared Resolution No. 26-03 to declare this document a public record so that it may be
referenced within Ordinance No. 1570, per the provisions of A.R.S§ 9-802. This reduces the
length of the ordinance and reduces the significant publishing costs that would apply if otherwise
left in the ordinance.
Council had no concerns.
Mayor Wilson opened the Public Hearing, receiving no comments from the public, he closed the
Public Hearing and asked for a motion.
12. 26-1 Presentation, discussion, public hearing and consideration of Resolution
No. 26-03, a resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of
Apache Junction, Arizona, declaring as a public record that certain
document filed with the city clerk and entitled "Legal Descriptions and
Map Exhibits of the P-25-104-AM Meridian Drive Annexation"; repealing
any conflicts provisions; and providing for severability.
Councilmember Cross moved,seconded by Councilmember Johnson that Resolution No. 26-03,a
resolution of the mayor and city council declaring as a public record that certain document filed
with the city clerk titled "Legal Descriptions and Map Exhibits of the P-25-104-AM Meridian Drive
Annexation"; repealing any conflicting provisions;and providing for severability be approved.

This memorandum provides a supplemental analysis of travel demand scenarios contemplated in
relation to the three developments proposed within the northeast quadrant of the Idaho Road (SR 88)
and Junction Street intersection in Apache Junction. This is a supplement to the 88-North Apartments
Traffic Impact Study(CivTech, 2022) approved by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT)
on November 14, 2022 and the projects referenced therein; these projects are now referred to as
Roers, Bella Norte, and Skyline, respectively.
This presents an analysis of development-related travel conditions to assist with a presentation of
relevant transportation conditions to the Apache Junction council. The analysis and memorandum
were developed promptly in response to transportation-related questions of Council members'.
DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
Encompassing 32.22-acres, the proposal includes three multifamily projects, Roers, Bella Norte, and
Skyline. Collectively, these projects include 610 apartments/townhomes. Access would be provided
by a primary approach located on N. Idaho Road, two approaches on E. Junction Street, and one on
N. Winchester Road. SR 88, designated Idaho Road by the City, is an ADOT road; E. Junction Street
and N. Winchester Road are under the control of Apache Junction.
The November 2022 traffic impact study (TIS) addressed the impact of a 662-unit multifamily project
on 10 intersections and proposed development approaches, as grounded on review of a 2027 project
buildout year. This memorandum addresses a reduction of 52 units from the initial proposal and TIS.
Only signal timing and phasing optimization was proposed with the TIS to maintain acceptable
mobilities, a conclusion accepted by ADOT and the City. This TIS can be reviewed for further details
on analyses or methods.
Apache Junction Council members desire to better understand the transportation conditions related to
existing traffic conditions and the proposed projects. The applicants volunteered additional traffic
analyses to help address Council members' questions, which includes the following topics:
1. Review peak traffic conditions during the fall/winter travel season.

2. Review collision data and identify any potential safety issues along a segment of N. Idaho Road
near the proposed projects.
3. Review queue potentials for the northbound, N. Idaho Road "U"turn at Apache Trail Road, and
assess whether these projects will significantly increase the current occurrences.
4. Compare travel conditions of the current residential proposal with various land use scenarios,
including commercial or office could be developed on the site, as allowed per zoning code.
5. Compare conditions of the current proposal with a higher apartment density scenario allowed
by zoning code.
6. Revise LOS analyses for N. Idaho Road intersections with Apache Trail, Junction Street, and
Old West Highway based on seasonal forecasts that include the three projects.
WINTER TRAVEL DEMANDS
Intersection traffic counts were collected to support the originally approved TIS in June of 2022. City
Council members asked whether these counts were low, given reduction of seasonal occupants in
the region. Of most concern was reduced traffic on Idaho Road. To review this, an intersection count
was performed for Idaho Road/Junction Street on December 18, 2025, when seasonal occupants
were in the area, prior to school being let out for the Christmas holiday break. Counts were performed
between 7 AM to 9 AM and 4 PM to 6 PM so commute peak hours could be considered.
As expected, a comparison between current and prior counts confirmed that peak hour volumes are
higher in December versus June at this intersection. Overall, counts were noted to be about 62%
higher during the AM peak hour and 60% higher during the PM peak hour on Idaho Road. Counts
were noted to be 53% higher during the AM peak hour and 58% higher during the PM peak hour on
Junction Street. This differential was factored/considered when reviewing mobility performances for
study intersections, as discussed subsequently in this memorandum.
It should be noted that other contributing factors influence the difference between counts. These
factors include, but are not limited to, the generation of trips from recent developments built over the
last 3 years in the area. Also, higher-than typical activities occurring at the adjacent "Fry's" shopping
center were due to counts being performed the week prior to Christmas. Historically, high traffic
occurs during the weeks before the holiday. Thus, given the timing of the counts, the week before
Christmas, the analysis in this memorandum overstates the amount of typical traffic during the AM/PM
peak hours in the winter months.
Regardless, the differential was enough to update the LOS for Idaho Road and Junction Street
intersections, considering elevated traffic counts. However, given contributing factors listed above,
the intersection volumes used to support this study should be considered conservative (high-end).
COLLISION DATA
A review of collision data was performed to address City Council questions regarding safety for drivers
along Idaho Road (SR 88). Per standard industry practice, 3-year collision data was reviewed for this
analysis. Most current, available data from ADOT was assembled for a period extending between
January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024.

The study reviews collision histories for the Apache Trail Road, Junction Street, and Old West Highway
intersections with Idaho Road; also, for segments between these junctions. The resulting total collision
data is summarized with Table 1, also shown are severities and incident types. Noted in green is totals
per year and the average incidents per year. Shown in blue is severities and yellow is incident type.

Rationale for further analyses is highlighted when a high density of collisions is noted at a location or
along a roadway segment. A standard industry practice is to perform further analyses for a minor
intersection or road segment experiencing more than 5 collisions per year; this is typical of local roads
and collectors. A major intersection or road segment, typically an arterial or highway, is reviewed when
experiencing more than 10 collisions per year.
Per the consideration note above, only the intersection at Old West Highway and Idaho Road has
collision experiences that exceeds an average of 10 incidents per year. The other intersections and
road segments of focus do not have collision densities that surpass general thresholds. This is not to
say that the collisions noted are not important to the City; it is a way to affirm collisions do not exceed
what is typical and expected along roadways.
The next steps are to compare conditions with a comparable location, to assess whether this density
of incidents is unusual for Old West Highway, and to further examine severity conditions. The Ironwood
Drive junction with Old West Highway is a comparable location west of Idaho Road. By comparable,
this intersection is also signalized, has similar lane geometry and signal phasing, and has comparable
traffic volumes; both intersections support approximately 22,000 entering vehicles per day.
Collision data was collected for the 2022 to 2024 timeframe at the Ironwood Drive / Old West
Highway intersection. ADOT histories indicates a total of 58 collisions occurred over three years at
a consistent rate of about 19 collisions per year, and with a high injury rate (38% at 22 of 58 incidents).
Given comparable conditions,the number of incidents at this location exceeds those occurring at Idaho

40 incidents). The Idaho Road / Old West Highway intersection �. :. •, rr

does not appear to experience a collision or injury rate that
exceeds those of a comparable intersection along the route.
A review of severities is performed to help confirm whether an j I
unusual safety issue(s) is occurring at the intersection. There were 9 -,*••
injury incidents and a fatality at the intersection; this represents a
25% casualty occurrence at this location. Even with a very
unfortunate fatality, this is a low rate, leading to a likely conclusion of
low speed and low impact incidents. A review of causal factors yields
no conclusion, given lack of any consistent occurrences relating to
incident type. Low severity issues with lack of causal factors confirms
the conclusion that occurrences are not unusual; project trips are + t •
note likely to influence incidents at this location. °

One more item of note is the location of incidents, as shown to the �.
right through illustration. There is a lack of collision density occurring •
along Idaho Road adjacent to the project. This would be the site r '
access areas where generated-trips could have the highest impact,
at/near Approach A or Junction Road. Yet, the conclusion is a lack
of collisions for project trips to exasperate along Idaho Road; the
three projects should not precipitate atypical changes in these ;
conditions. �: •�•` �v,:

collisions occurs from Fry's driveway extending south to Old Highway West; a function of turn
movements accessing the shopping center. Project trips will primarily be directed through this area,
not unusually impacting turning movements outside of those few trips working to access
retail/commercial sites.
LAND DEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS
The site includes 32.22-acres located in an area zoned B-3 "City Center" by Apache Junction. Zoning
code defines this as being "intended for commercial, recreational, and/or multi-family residential land
uses located within the Core Downtown Area." Although some land uses may require a conditional
use permit as a part of the entitlement process, B-3 is one of the more flexible zoning designations
within the City.
We reviewed the impact that different types of land use development would have on the area, as
compared with the current proposal. To address this question, five land use scenarios were developed
for review: the currently proposed three resident projects at currently proposed densities(less 52-units
from the approved TIS), maximum density residential, commercial/shopping, general office, and
healthcare. The traffic generated with each of these land use scenarios was determined using
equations and rates provided by the Trip Generation Manual (12th Edition, ITE, 2025).
CivTech
North 88 Apartments Supplemental Traffic Analysis
Page 5 of 9
Residential, Current Proposal and Maximum. The current proposal includes the development
of 610 apartment/townhome units. B-3 zoning allows residential densities of up to 40-units per
acre, with a minimum required density of 13 units per acre. Based on area/acreage, the site could
be developed with up to 1,228 units; double the total for the three projects, a unit count that
exceeds the current proposal by 618 units. Trips were estimated using ITE Land Use Code 220
for Low-Rise Multifamily Housing, which addresses buildings of three-floors or less.
Commercial/Retail. The site can support commercial development with allowances that includes
most retail uses except for large "big-box stores" and "warehouse clubs" like Walmart and Costco.
ITE Land Use Code 820 is a flexible application that addresses a wide range of retail development
scenarios. This was used to address the commercial/retail development potential of the site.
Building footprints tend to occupy between 20% and 30% of a site, the balance typically occupied
by parking, drainage and utility areas, and landscaping. A total building area of 355,000 square-
feet (sf) was assumed for the purpose of this scenario; this is over 25% of the total site area.
General Office. An equivalent facility area was assumed for office, 355,000 sf. ITE Land Use 710
for Geneal Office Building was used to predict site traffic, a land use that reflects"legal, accounting,
engineering, consulting, real estate, insurance, financial, or other professional services."
Medical. ITE Land Use Code 720 Medical-Dental office building describes where "facility or clinic
with one more tenant that provide diagnoses and outpatient care on routine basis" are provided. A
facility area of 355,000 sf was also assumed for this review.
SCENARIO TRIP GENERATION
Summary trip generation for each of the land use scenarios is shown with Table 2. Noted in light green
is trip generation for the current land use proposal. Noted in light blue is the max-density residential,
shopping center, general office, and medical office/health care trip generation forecasts. Trips are
forecast for the AM and PM peak hours of the weekday.

Scenario Four:Medical Office/Healthcare 582 164 746 392 916 1,308
Conclusions drawn from a comparison of current versus potential trip generation totals are as follows:
- Current Proposal. The current proposal for the three projects is the lowest trip generation
proposal, compared with the other development scenarios/types permitted in this area.
- Max Residential. The maximum residential scenario represents nearly a 100% increase in trip
generation over the current proposal between the commute peak hours.
- Shopping Center. The shopping center proposal represents a 260% increase in trips for the
weekday with a range of 50%to 300%noted between the AM and PM peak hours, respectively.
CivTech
North 88 Apartments Supplemental Traffic Analysis
Page 6of9
General Office. The office AM peak hour is nearly 90% and PM peak hour just over 30%
higher than the residential proposal.
Medical Office/Healthcare. The AM and PM Peak hour traffic are about three times and four
times higher, respectively, than residential proposal.
A review of trip generation confirms that other potential developments in zoning allowances result in
trip generation that exceed the current proposal, some very substantially. As capacity conditions are
considered based on peak hour analyses, the impact of these trip gains is discussed with the next
LOS analysis section.
LOS ANALYSIS
The supplemental analysis reviews levels of service (LOS) results for the Idaho Road intersections
with Apache Trail, Junction Street, and Old West Highway as based upon the land use scenarios noted
above; also, for three new site intersections on Idaho Road and Junction Street. A description of LOS
methods and procedure is provided with the original TIS. The LOS analysis was prepared based on
forecasts that were developed as follows:
• Traffic counts from the original TIS were factored to address seasonal variations. Per the prior
section, a 60% adjustment was used for Idaho Road, and 55% adjustment for Junction Street
(approximate).
• Per the original TIS, a 3.5% growth factor was then applied to revised counts to generate year
2027 baseline (non-project) forecasts for the AM and PM peak hours.
• Trips were assigned to the street and intersection system based on the distributions used with
the approved TIS, this was repeated for all land use scenarios.
• Assignments were combined repeatedly with baseline forecasts to generate with-project
forecasts for each scenario.
Elevated intersection traffic volumes have been attached via Excel spreadsheets. LOS calculations
were performed based on the land use forecasts highlighted above. A summary of LOS is provided
with Table 3 for the AM and PM peak hours. The LOS analysis was developed using Synchro Version
12 (Cubic, 2025). Shown in yellow is existing conditions (based on revised, exiting volumes), green
represents LOS for the current proposal, and blue are the land use scenarios reviewed for this study.
Summary LOS in Synchro can be provided in worksheets or the software platform upon request.

The City and ADOT maintain a LOS D standard for intersections located on urban streets. Highlighted
in red are LOS that do not meet standard. The existing conditions analysis indicates no LOS failures
prevail at study intersections between the AM and PM peak hours. Note that the existing conditions
LOS were developed based on intersection volumes adjusted for seasonal variation.
The forecast analysis concludes that LOS are acceptable under most land use scenarios during peak
hours with exception of the retail and medical/healthcare scenarios due to high trip generation
potentials; deficiencies are again shown in red. Under these scenarios, the off-site intersection of Old
West Highway/Idaho Road is forecast to function at LOS E under the retail scenario. Up to three
proposed access are forecast to function at LOS E/F between during the PM peak hour.
The best overall LOS results are highlighted with the current project proposal; this is a result of reduced
trip generation. In fact, by adding the three proposed projects, there are only minor LOS changes
between the existing condition and current proposal condition during the AM peak hour, and there is
no material change forecast during the PM peak hour. This confirms the conclusions in the original
TIS that the project proposal has a minor impact on mobility conditions.
Elements of note for the Synchro/LOS analysis include:
- Signal split times were optimized with each land use scenario to represent how signals operate
during peak hours in response to travel demands.
- Two-stage gap allowances were used for the stopped approach of Approach A and Junction
Street along Idaho Road due to availability of a two-way left-turn lane; a single vehicle queue
was assumed as storage in the two-stage maneuver.
NORTHBOUND U-TURN
The northbound left-turn lane at the Apache Trail Road / Idaho Road intersection extends 200-feet to
support turning and U-turn movements. This is sufficient to support between 8 to 9 vehicles dwelling
within the stopped approach. The concern of council is whether this movement will experience a
substantial queue issue as development occurs along Idaho Road.
Fortunately, this is not expected to be the case. In the analysis, this was not predicted to be a high-
use movement during peak hours; there are 15 to 20 peak hour vehicles currently using the lane during
each peak hour. This would increase to a range of between 25 to 30 vehicles using the lane during
each peak hour, respectively, under the forecast scenarios. Using Synchro, this results in an average
queue condition of between 1 to 2 vehicles during each peak hour, with 2 to 3 vehicles for the 95t"
percentile demand condition during each peak hour. For context, average refers to queues that occur
normally in a lane (or lanes) during the peak hour, a 95" percentile queue only occurs a few times
during a peak hour. In all cases, average and 95" percentile queues are well below the available 8 to
9 vehicles of storage.
LOS are favorable at the Approach A and Junction Street intersections with Idaho Road; thus, left
turns can occur without traffic needing to use the Apache Trail Road / Idaho Road intersection for U-
CivTech

turns. However, to provide some assurance to council, a threshold analysis was performed to help vet
when queues could be an issue for this movement. The traffic volumes within this lane were reviewed
to help confirm when queued vehicles might exceed the available turn pocket. It was confirmed that a
95th percentile queue of more than 200-feet (8 to 9 vehicles) would occur with elevation of traffic to
about 150-vehilces (+/-) during peak hours. This is well beyond the traffic forecasts presented with
the initially accepted TIS and this subsequent analysis. This should provide assurances that lane
capacity is available, even if a higher degree of site trips were to perform U-Turns over what has been
expected by this analysis.
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
This memo provides a supplemental and informal analysis of travel demand scenarios contemplated
in relation to the North 88 Apartments. The analysis was built from the 88-North Apartments Traffic
Impact Study(CivTech, 2022) approved by ADOT in November of 2022; the projects are now noted
as the Roers, Bella Norte and Skyline projects. The conclusions from the analyses are as follows:
1. The proposal represents a reduction of 52 units from the initially proposed TIS.
2. Seasonal travel demands impact Idaho Road (SR 88), December 2025 counts were noted to
be about 55% higher than June 2022 counts during the AM peak hour and 60% higher during
the PM peak hour.
3. While every incident is unfortunate, and fatalities tragic, the collision analysis does confirm
that there are no unusual collisions issues occurring within the study area. Further, the project
does not generate the levels of traffic anticipated to precipitate an issue, especially given no
existing issues adjacent to the proposed development.
4. Four land use scenarios were reviewed as an alternative to the current land use proposal of
610-unts. A 1,288 max density residential, shopping center / retail center, , general office,
and medical office/health care, respectively were reviewed. The current proposal for the three
residential projects results in trip generation that is 100 to 300% lower than other reviewed
land use scenarios, and lower during peak AM and PM hours than the office scenario. Peak
hour traffic volumes are between 30% to 300% lower under all land use scenarios.
5. LOS are most favorable with the proposed three residential projects; the LOS D standard is
met for all study Idaho Road intersections and Idaho Road and Junction Street approaches.
In fact, there are only minor variations in LOS between the existing and current project
proposal conditions. This indicates a reduction from 610 units to a lower unit count for the
three projects would not cause notable reduction in LOS benefit.
6. Average and 95th percentile queue potentials in the northbound left-turn lane at Apache Trail
Road/Idaho Road are not forecast to exceed three vehicles between peak hours, this includes
left-turns and U-turns. Demands are not currently high, nor are they forecast to be high, with
the accepted, original TIS or via this study (maximum use of 25-vehilces predicted). 95th
percentile queues are not anticipated to surpass the 200-foot queue pocket until a demand of
about 150 vehicles use the lane during peak hours.
The conclusion of this study is confirmation of the original TIS, the project can be developed
without unacceptably impacting travel conditions within the City of Apache Junction.

SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Classification and Compensation Study
As part of the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget adoption, council authorized the funding for a
classification and compensation study to review labor market salaries and benefits. The last full
study was done in 2014. The city has since conducted compensation studies which is a limited
review of position titles and pay. The full classification and compensation study reviews job
descriptions with employee and supervisor feedback, classifications, titles, pay and benefits.
The goal of a classification and compensation study is to ensure the city remains competitive in
its total rewards package to ensure it can successfully compete for existing and future
employees. It is especially important in retaining good employees and not losing them to other
entities as it is significantly more expensive to hire and train new employees than to retain
existing employees. In addition, the numerous increases in the state's minimum wage have
continued to have a ripple effect on wages. Today's minimum wage is$15.15 per hour
compared to $8.05 per hour in 2016.
Through a competitive bid process, the city selected Public Sector Personnel Consultants (PSPC)
to conduct the study. The study included all current classified positions. PSPC conducted a
review of comparable positions with the city's comparators which include the Arizona cities and
towns of: Avondale, Buckeye, Casa Grande, Goodyear, Marana, Maricopa, Mesa, Oro Valley,
and Queen Creek.
Historically, the city has aimed to be within midmarket (50th percentile) of its comparator
organizations. This classification and compensation study was prepared with that same goal.
Key survey findings include:
• Civilian pay grades are more than -5% below Market for 75% of jobs.
• Police pay grades are below market for command ranks, nearer market for Officer,
Sergeant.
Class and Comp
February 3,2026
Page Two
• The City is offering a competitive number, type, and level of employee benefits
compared to the market comparator cities, including health insurance, leave accrual,
and add/assignment pay.
PSPC is recommending an updated salary schedule for both civilian and sworn positions that
includes a 2% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for implementation with the Fiscal Year 2026-
2027 budget to catch up to the market.
The overall salary cost implication for the proposed civilian placements is $1,200.000 and
proposed sworn placements is $601,000.
Thank you for your consideration. Let me know if you have any questions.

Subject: Revised Classification and Compensation Memo for February 3 City Council Meeting
Attachments: FY26 Class and Comp Memo 020326 - revised 020226.pdf
Good afternoon fearless leaders!
Please find attached a revised staff memo for the classification and compensation study agenda item on
tomorrow night's city council agenda.
Two typos, one significant and the other not so. But both, errors on my part that I would like to correct.
1) Page two-cost implication for non-sworn placements should read $1,200,000 and not$1,200.00(1 wish!).
2) Page one—I somehow self-demoted from HR Director to HR Manager inversion one.
The revised memo corrects both mistakes.Thank you, Councilmember Cross,for catching the. instead of the , in
the dollar amount. I apologize for the grammatical errors. I've also placed a hardcopy of the revision in your
council mailboxes upstairs.
Looking forward to a good discussion and any questions you might have tomorrow evening.
Thankyou,

✓I' City of Apache Junction Human Resources Department
DATE: February 3, 2026 (Revised February, 2, 2026)
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
THROUGH: Bryant Powell, City Manager
FROM: Anna McCray, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Classification and Compensation Study
As part of the Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget adoption, council authorized the funding for a
classification and compensation study to review labor market salaries and benefits. The last full
study was done in 2014. The city has since conducted compensation studies which is a limited
review of position titles and pay. The full classification and compensation study reviews job
descriptions with employee and supervisor feedback, classifications, titles, pay and benefits.
The goal of a classification and compensation study is to ensure the city remains competitive in
its total rewards package to ensure it can successfully compete for existing and future
employees. It is especially important in retaining good employees and not losing them to other
entities as it is significantly more expensive to hire and train new employees than to retain
existing employees. In addition, the numerous increases in the state's minimum wage have
continued to have a ripple effect on wages. Today's minimum wage is $15.15 per hour
compared to $8.05 per hour in 2016.
Through a competitive bid process, the city selected Public Sector Personnel Consultants (PSPC)
to conduct the study. The study included all current classified positions. PSPC conducted a
review of comparable positions with the city's comparators which include the Arizona cities and
towns of: Avondale, Buckeye, Casa Grande, Goodyear, Marana, Maricopa, Mesa, Oro Valley,
and Queen Creek.
Historically, the city has aimed to be within midmarket (50th percentile) of its comparator
organizations. This classification and compensation study was prepared with that same goal.
Key survey findings include:
• Civilian pay grades are more than -5% below Market for 75%of jobs.
• Police pay grades are below market for command ranks, nearer market for Officer,
Sergeant.

• The City is offering a competitive number, type, and level of employee benefits
compared to the market comparator cities, including health insurance, leave accrual,
and add/assignment pay.
PSPC is recommending an updated salary schedule for both civilian and sworn positions that
includes a 2%Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for implementation with the Fiscal Year 2026-
2027 budget to catch up to the market.
The overall salary cost implication for the proposed civilian placements is $1,200,000 and
proposed sworn placements is $601,000.
Thank you for your consideration. Let me know if you have any questions.
