5 City of Berkeley: The City of Berkeley FY2022 Byrne JAG Local allocation of $44,502 minus the 10% administrative fee, will result in the remaining allocation of $40,051.80, to supplement overtime for sworn and non-sworn personnel engaged in targeted crime suppression activities or necessary for high-profile community events. The department will be able to increase its high visibility and police presence with the use of officers and additional support personnel on an overtime basis. The Police Department will continue to use these federal funds to help relieve the pressures on the General Fund relative to overtime costs to promote community safety. A. Personal Services – Salaries/Employee Benefits The FY2022 JAG Local grant will fund the overtime costs of sworn personnel, dispatchers, jail staff, parking enforcement officers, and other support staff who are engaged in crime suppression activities or necessary for high-profile community events. For purposes of budgeting, the top step salary of most utilized classifications are displayed, although each employee will be compensated at their actual rate of overtime pay. Similarly, the exact hours of overtime used by each classification vary and are informational only, and not listed to identify the exact cost. Ultimately, the personnel paid under this project funding, will not exceed the budgeted allocation for grand total overtime expended. As all activity will be conducted on overtime, the benefits will be consistent with the classification and are limited to Workers’ Compensation, at the current rate of 8.38%, and Medicare at 1.45% of total overtime wages.
