“I think today- we’re more here as it relates to our public safety in bringing their salaries to a range that’s acceptable and that will be competitive with other cities so we’re not losing our personnel to other cities,” stated Jimmie Gardner, Prichard Mayor. “Our police fines and municipal fines are very low. The actual so far is maybe like 27 thousand. What can we do to increase those? Are we going after our fines and tickets and can we beefen that up some?” questioned one city council member.
The City says it wants to prioritize raising wages for public safety employees, but they have to figure out where the money will come from.
