Crowley's City Council approved a resolution to appropriate funds to pay for the raises for police officers.

The board moved to increase officer's annual base pay to $36,000.

After 90 days of good standing, that pay would increase to $42,000 with a two percent annual raise.

However, the proposed raises come with contingencies including requiring officers to reimburse the city for training or equipment if they don't stay with the department for two years.
