Yakima Police Propose 10% Budget Reductions to Balance City General Fund
The Yakima Police Department is proposing reductions to its staffing levels to help the city avoid a potential budget gap in the near future. The City of Yakima is requiring all of its departments to identify significant reductions to reach a goal of $7.2 million in savings. The Yakima Police Department is allotted about 44% of the city’s bi-annual budget. Salary and benefits represent 84% of the police department’s bi-annual budget, so cuts to its staff are being proposed. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/washington-in-focus/support
