NPPD union demands hefty pay increases
NORTH PORT -- The North Port police are asking to be among the highest-paid officers from Tampa to Naples, under a proposal submitted to city officials Friday.
Base pay for officers in the growing department would start at $42,400, and lieutenants at the top of their pay grades would earn $92,553, putting North Port above all but one of the 13 law enforcement agencies the Police Benevolent Association studied.
The negotiations are now in their 11th month.
