LA City Council approves $3M to hire 410 new officers, boosting LAPD to 8,555 by year-end.
The Los Angeles City Council approved $3 million in funding to hire and train 410 new police officers for the 2025-26 fiscal year, bringing the LAPD’s force to about 8,555 officers by year’s end.
The funding, drawn from LAPD accounts and unused city funds, follows earlier allocations and aims to offset retirements and staffing shortfalls.
Mayor Karen Bass and LAPD leaders emphasized the need for sustained police presence amid public safety concerns and upcoming international events.
The move resolves a months-long dispute over staffing, though officials acknowledge long-term funding challenges remain.
