What has the City spent on Reserve Officer Expense?
$2.5M across 4,175 payments, October 5, 2017 to August 28, 2026 — 10 purchase orders and 1 vendor, run by Police.
As published: RESERVE OFFICER EXPENSE
This budget line has run for 10 fiscal years across 10 separate purchase orders. A single payment in the register shows none of that — the commitment outlives any one order, and the orders are how it gets renewed.
