IT IS APPARENTLY TRUE THAT IT IS BETTER TO BE A POLICE OR FIRE FIGHTER IN FULLERTON AS WELL AS A CITY COUNCIL MEMBER THAN TO BE EVEN THE KING OF FRANCE by Barry Levinson

We know our roads are a disaster. Every person who lives, works or goes to college in this city should sue the Fullerton Government for all the damage they have done to all of our vehicles. How many alignments must be done over and over again do to the very poor conditions of our road? How many tires wear unevenly directly caused again by the condition of our roads?

We should file a class action lawsuit against the city for all these damages and more. When last year the police and fire unions asked for a raise, the city council said how high granting them raises in the 4 to 6 percent annual ranges when inflation has been under 2% for most of the decade.
Look at the 2016 salaries and benefits here:

Not only that, the city ignored the almost double digit raises Fullerton police and fire have received via increased employer/taxpayer pension contributions for the last decade.

In 2010, the employer/taxpayer pension contribution was approximately 33% of their base pay. Now 7 years later it is at or above 60% and going higher. That means that over the last 7 years taxpayer pension costs has increased approximately 9% a year on average. No private sector employee (excluding some CEO’s, COO’s or CFO’s) gets anywhere close to those type of raises. Add in 4 to 6% salary raises given last year to our fire and police and you have 15% overall salary package raises last year alone.

As Mel Brooks kept on stating while playing French Kiing Louis XIV….it is good to be the king….but it apparently it is even better to be a police or fireman in the City of Fullerton. I say this since Louis XIV grandson and his wife did face the chopping block at the end of the French Revolution yet pensions still are sacrosanct in California.

I report, you decide…. Barry Levinson

    Immaterial Paul. The point is that Fullertonians will pay out approx 13 million dollars for someone who I believe broke the law more than once

    Only another cop would ignore the obvious and talk about salaries in other cities. Other cities might have honest police chiefs and do not have crumbling roads. Are you really that stupid or just that totally selfish?

    Decent force??? I understand 35% of the entire FPD left under HUGHES to go to other departments that were not so corrupt!!
