Salary Schedule Changes for Non-Union, Uniformed Police Officials of the Metropolitan Police Department Emergency Approval Resolution of 2025

This resolution approves equal pay for non-union, uniformed police officials in the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) by retroactively applying a 4.5% salary increase to match unionized officers' pay scales. It covers fiscal years 2024 (retroactive to October 8, 2023), 2025 (retroactive to October 6, 2024), and 2026 (effective October 5, 2025). The changes affect non-union MPD officers in specific ranks (e.g., Lieutenants and Captains) under the "Police Service" pay schedule, ensuring their base pay, retention allowances, and longevity payments align with unionized counterparts. The resolution takes effect October 1, 2025, after approval.

What changed between versions

Introduction → Enrollment · 3 edits
MINOR
The document transitions from a Mayor's transmittal letter introducing a proposed resolution to the enrolled original version of the resolution itself. The substantive policy content regarding salary schedules, effective dates, and fiscal years remains unchanged, but the document now formally includes the resolution text with an enrolled status indicating it has been officially adopted by the Council.
Scope change
The document scope changed from a transmittal letter introducing a proposal to the final enrolled resolution text. The policy scope regarding salary schedule changes for non-union police officials remains identical.
TECHNICAL

The document now includes the enrolled original resolution text (PR 26-0308) with Council approval rather than just the Mayor's transmittal letter introducing the proposal.

Removed the Mayor's transmittal letter, cover page, and introductory context that accompanied the initial proposal submission.

Changed document format from a letter transmittal to a formal enrolled resolution with resolution number 26-196 and page numbering.
