To hire more police, you're going to have to increase salaries and, and you can do that by providing recruitment and retention bonuses. I would propose $15,000 bonus paid in two tranches. 5,000 on graduation from the academy, 10,000 after 12 months. But in that first year, the salary would go up 15,000. Then have a retention stipend for years 2 to 5, 6 to 9, and then a bonus for police officers who stay after 10 years. (09:15–09:27)
