So....a new contract is coming. A decent pay raise is coming. Let's not forget LMPD will still be in the lower echelons of pay in the state, and for a department responsible for as much as it is that is still not acceptable. Fischer alone is responsible for the downfall while using Conrad and his minions as the henchmen. The department is short hundreds because of them, but that is staffing levels are fischer. Louisville is a lot bigger and departments in cities this size are staffed with 1500 plus.
