Police Contract Negotiations

Del Rio's officers could see raises of 2.5% (plus a half-percent in March), 3.5%, and 4% over three years. The city insisted on dropping the Me Too clause so other city staff raises wouldn't automatically apply to police, and the union agreed in exchange for a richer wage package.

New rules let animal services seize aggressive dogs — not just dogs that attack people — closing a gap that left neighbors and livestock unprotected. Permits to keep such dogs will cost $50 to $125.
