Part of the cause of the budget shortfall is a 23% pay raise for the SPD.
And all this after the SPD's dirty politicking during the BLM protests. That department should have been shut down, the officers banned for life from ever being police again, and then the city starting again from scratch, with proper accountability at every stage.
