A tentative agreement was announced Tuesday between the city and the union representing Los Angeles Police Department officers, sergeants, detectives and lieutenants, with the mayor's office insisting it would improve recruitment and retention efforts through increased starting salaries and incentives.
According to the mayor's office, staffing at LAPD has declined by more than 1,000 officers since the beginning of 2020, and the agency is expected to lose hundreds more in the coming year due to retirements and resignations.
