The Public Safety function handles all aspects related to citizen protection and is made up of the Police
and Fire departments. The largest expenditure in public safety is personnel, which will increase $748,649
related to the market adjustments and the 2% step plan discussed in the personnel section. While
personnel costs for both departments have increased, FY 2020-21 year-end projections indicate salary
savings. For FY 2021-22, one detention officer is being added to the Jail, one dispatcher position is being
reclassified to NETCOM Assistant Manager, and one School Resource Officer position is being increased
from a less-than full-time position (0.75 FTE) to a full-time position (1.0 FTE). The Keller Westlake Fire
Departments are in the process of a consolidation feasibility study that will be ongoing throughout FY
2021-22.
