Interesting if True
Rumors abound as the mayoral inauguration approaches:
- FYI O/T The bodyguard detail will be out for Lori. Private security to take over. No Police.
Also Lori's wife will have an office on 4th fl at city hall.
Why would the mayoral spouse need an office? Is she drawing a salary, too?
The "no police" thing though - no more clouted sergeants stealing a commander paycheck (and pension) and 24 "politically reliable" officers grabbing sergeants pay, even when working overtime not guarding the mayor. That's already $300,000 or so cut from the budget (minus the cost of whoever she hires.)

three MILLION not three hundred thousand
If true that’s a great move. Now she should start a district by district audit of all the house mice running around with less than 4 years on the job. I can’t believe the amount of new officers that work inside. These districts are restricting time due for guys and gals working the street while some districts have as many as 5 to 6 officers working inside already. The bosses allow this and it’s pathetic. ☠️
Lot of people crying. Just like little Piget did when he sued the city when Rahm changed some of the guards.
Heard she’s trimming the budget drastically too. She’s heard of Vri and driven around and seen nobody ever on Michigan ave. Word is out and look for Vri to be completely gone after the summer since it’s such a waste of $$. Coppers always fuck up a good thing
So which retired connected folks will get this sweet big money gig........
Well, that would be a good start to begin cutting unnecessary waste. Boat loads of money wasted on the detail. Put cops back on the street. Next start cutting some of the Deputy Chiefs, Commanders, Captains etc. way too many big bosses. Not necessary. It’s just overlap and waste.
That just means 24 not so clouted will lose their spot to the mayoral detail. You don’t expect them to work a beat car do you?
Good she’s smart
Off topic.
I hate when you study for these promotional exams and pay money for classes and when you see someone in the class and they tell you I have no interest in being a sgt. Or detective . Well than why did you pay 2k you idiot! You sound like a moron!
Penny wise, pound foolish.
That begs the question, what happens to the shanks detail? And, will 9.5 get a detail for a prescribed amount of days, weeks or months? And, will she consider whatever she decides to do, someone else will most likely do to her after her 4 or 8 years are over. Interesting.
Ahahahhhahaha! I hope the F/4 who made the sex beef against the Sgt and was offered this cushy spot as hush money enjoyed the trip while it lasted.
The East Side missed you!
X-D
Monterrey Security perhaps. LOL
Plus they get sergeants pension hope it’s true that means Lori is a true reformer.
I like her already.
Very good start Lori, if true.
Why would the mayoral spouse need an office? Is she drawing a salary, too?...............
Why not?
NYC mayor's spouse has her own office and organization as well as several hundred thousand unaccounted for dollars.
Lori looking to have The Shackman decree court monitoring reinstated by putting her wifey on the 4th floor of City Hall.
Bodyguards?
They will all be Out and Proud Amazon Warriors!
Seriously, Will she have her own private band of Brownshirts?
Chicago will be SO WOKE!
Soon the police will be Warriors for Social Justice! (Have Fun!)
The office for the wife stinks to high heaven.
That way they can carpool. DINKS, as bankers
would say: Double Income, No Kids
(THE ideal candidates for a jumbo mortgage;
just saying. My guess is the dream home comes
after she leaves office.)
Thank God... what a joke that detail was and is
If this is in fact true, she gains a couple percentage points from me.
Excellent .....
Sounds like the typical progressive to me with her picks. Dan Lurie, a former Obama administration official, will work as the mayor’s policy director. And can't forget the new "Chief Equity Officer.” Candace Moore will create new policies intended to address the city’s long-standing income and race based inequities. You have to wonder what the "spouse" will be doing and why she needs an office. Will she need a secretary too? Perhaps her role will be some LGBT advocate type thing? Gots to push every aspect of the progressive agenda.
And how much is that going to cost the taxpayers
J greene security hahaha or whose that other fake jedadiah or lemmon
Yeah right 300K from police budget but 600k for the taxpayers to pay for private security. LOL
So she doesn't trust the police to keep her safe. That or she is a real police haters and just the sight of them gets her upset. Either way this does not bode well for the police Mayoral relationship.
The company she has hired is none other than, Vanecko Security Consultants Inc.
What about our contract??
But what about the Horses?
Like Daley and Emmanuel?
Will theses two losers still have security detail of CPD members?
As for Groot, about the only one she has to fear are current or retired City employees!
O/T: time to get that “STOP CHASING” G.O. Picture out again SCC...
Real bad chase in 015 last night. Left one dead in the vehicle and for what?
Traffic non-sense.
Congrats ..you thick-skulled primary unit- you just made yourself sacrificial lambs to
An incoming “progressive” mayor
How much is the private security going to cost?! Who pays for that??!
what about the other two details?
chicago values must provide for the ruling class.
who will pick rhams tomatoes?
open the car door for amy?
who powders richie's ass after a dydee change?
She hates them and will not work with them. She does have a problem as the feds told her that her private contractors will not be allowed anywhere. Garcia to OEMC, what a joke.
Doesn’t make since, too much liability for private security.
If this is True, then she is really talking reform. The Play/Pretend Secret Service that has made Rahm feel really "Special" is total bullshit and a carryover from a prior time in our clouted history. There is no need to tie up uniformed and plainclothes officers, at an outrageous cost to the City. Rahm's Security detail takes a substantial percentage of the police workforce from his District of residence; to what end? Rahm is not from Chicago, and spends much time out of the City. Yet, while Rahm is not in town, his house is guarded front and rear by Chicago Police 24/7! The Lapdog Media has consistently been afraid to address the issue of Presidential level security for Mayors, and others, like Burke; yet the taxpayers have been footing the bill to stroke these politicians egos. Maybe this is a ploy, like Rahm used when he first came to power and attended the boxing match between Fire and Police; and suddenly everyone was supposed to believe he was a working class slob, like the rest of us. Or, maybe this Mayor wants Real Change. Or maybe she is looking to provide Jamal Green with Gainful Employment, whatever the case, the future will be interesting. Stay Safe and Smart! Baby "G"
I hope she doesn’t put blue lights on her car(s). Or plan on traveling with armed protection. What a boneheaded move that’s a slap in the face to the CPD.
last week the newspapers followed her on her trip to DC. A photo on the front page of the Sun Times showed a former US Marshall with her.

three MILLION not three hundred thousand
===================
No. They all still have jobs, but at their actual salary. So $10,000 per year for the 24 officers is $240,000 and the 2 "commanders" reduced down to their assigned rank of sergeant is about 2 x $20,000. That's $280,000 plus whatever uniform extras they were given to buy suits.
It's a test to begin privatizing police and later ensuring global police. She can hire who she wants as long as she's picking up the tab and not taxpayers. Wait, this is shittcago, and she's political royalty. She'll have both.
What a terrible message she's sending: don't trust police.
Go read Saul Alinsky or any other commie book. She's part of the problem.
$300k is peanuts and for show.
Show me curb kicked judges, politicians and illegals. Maybe I'll consider her less than evil. I've endured her type in past. Flee this fleabag state.
Good, cancel the money waster VRI too!
765B
YES!!! Way to go Lori
Take home cars are next
Listen, Lori Lightfoot hates the Police!!!! When she was head of the police board she never said hello or thank you to any of the officers at the board meeting. There would be chaos sometimes after Lacquan and some of the other high profile officer involved shootings. She talked to the assholes but never the police. The other board members always said hello and thank you, not Lightfoot. She is a true vindictive and vicious little progressive. She hates us just as much as Preckwinkle. We are screwed!!!!

No , it is not "several hundred thousand unaccounted for dollars" , Her "ThriveNYC project" has lost track of 850 MILLION dollars.
I guess private security means concealed carry license rules apply. They will not have Police Powers. No operating police vehicles, or using emergency lights. Private security will have to obey all traffic and parking laws. This will not last long. Probably a political ploy, until Lightfoot realizes this will not work. Just a suggestion, but the executive protection unit is a nice job, your handsomely compensated (pensionable) with a significant amount of hours. Why not stop allowing abuse of the position. You keep your rank, you are required to work in your unit. This can be accomplished by holding people accountable.
Luna Security, it’s a done deal
Hire the coppers that got dumped by Rahmn s body Guard detail, when he got elected
Every copper on mayoral bodyguard detail I ever met, used the race card and acted like they weee white shirt bosses
If true I like that move trim the fat and drain the swamp. I want her to lead succeed help this city because we’re fucked if TRUE REFORM doesn’t happen soon! RETIRED.
If true that’s a great move. Now she should start a district by district audit of all the house mice running around with less than 4 years on the job.

Under 4 years? More like under 12 years.

I heard one Sgt. say he couldn’t find more than half his people when he went to log them.

No is 24×15,000, and 2×50,000+ the pensions which they get a commanders and sergeants rank. Also while she remove the details the security specialist on the city clerks detail and on the city treasurers detail and the massive amount of vehicles they have? That is another thing that needs to be addressed immediately nobody even knows who they are or actually cares who they are they want to be a privilege to be driven around they don’t need any details at all. This is good news if this is going to happen.
Most of the bodyguards on detail are 3 ft tall have Napoleon syndrome
She needs to shrink the City Council by 25 to save even more money.
Better study hard for this next Sgt Test kids! Lori talked a lot about Zip Codes. Check out what they did to the SAT. I wonder if they will give extra points to certain people?
https://www.foxnews.com/us/sat-to-use-adversity-score-for-students-applying-to-college
The College Board, which oversees the SAT exam used by most U.S. colleges during the admissions process, plans to introduce an “adversity score” which takes into consideration the social and economic background of every student
Word is retired Cmdr tom notsobrite (051&050) security company has already been contacted by lightfoot's people.
Not going to happen, Maybe she will bring in an outsider to be the commander but the unit itself will still be PO's.
If not, any private security, can never use lights and sirens on the vehicles as they are for police functions only per ILCS
If she really wants to reform the CPD she should eliminate District Commanders and have a district Captain. The Deputy Chiefs of Area North,Central and South Patrol would then become Patrol Area Commanders. No more Exempts as Executive Officers, utilize the underworked Lieutenants as Commanding Officers of smaller ancillary Units. No need for Three Lieutenants per Watch when one stays home and the others work only 4 hours a tour ( ever see three Lieutenants on a Watch working together at once? Nope, you have a better chance of getting a glimpse of Bigfoot) Have Captains running the Detective Areas and a Commander over the Detective Division. Some of these so called specialized units and bureaus could be handled by a lieutenant or Captain instead of a Commander. The CPD is way too top heavy with Gold Stars that don’t do anything that a Captain (whose really like an exempt district secretary) could do. Get rid of these do nothing old timers, hire hire and hire new officers. Give legitimate promotion tests every 2-3 years so the copper has a chance to do something other than work a beat car on midnights for his first 10 years. Go to 12 hours shifts, eliminate a Watch and have more man power coverage. Staggered start times of 0600, 0700, 0800, and 1800, 1900, and 2000 hrs start times respectively. No more watches waiting for cars for the first 1-2 hours of the tour because none are available. And most importantly settle the Contract and don’t be a adversarial towards us.
"Why would the mayoral spouse need an office? Is she drawing a salary, too?"
I respond:
This has been a policy change trending in Lib Demorat, BlackRuledAmerican politics for many years. It pretty much started with President Bill and Hillary Clinton. Hillary wasn't elected to any office, yet the media presented them as co-Presidents, Hillary was put in charge of some health care tax force, Rush Limbaugh Conservatives accused Hillary of trying to socialize all American medical care.
This sh*& has really taken over in Diblasio's (wasn't his birth name) New York City. Mayor de Blasio married a former Black Lesbian women who's very Left political.
Like Hillary - Mayor de Blasio's wife, Chirlane McCray was not elected to any public office. But, she's power hungry and has taken tax $ payer spending authorization for hundreds of $ millions of tax $s.
"Chirlane McCray, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s wife, was entrusted in 2015 with running a new initiative in the city called ThriveNYC, a program that attempted to address issues of homelessness, substance use, depression and suicide, all centered around mental health and with a price tag of $250 million per year in tax payer dollars.
Now, four years later, there are serious concerns and calls for official inquiries into the program because no one can determine if it’s actually been successful. What’s more, due to a general opaqueness when it comes to the program’s budget, ThriveNYC has apparently left that nearly $900 million unaccounted for."

Left Behind in Chicago
Well they won’t get the higher pension unless they retire now. They average the last 4 years of your highest salary. So unless they plan to leave in the next 3 years and a day they just wasted 8 years being a highly paid chauffeur.
now get all the sworn duty office clerks back on the street in 003 and 006
The new Mayor just gave a vote of no compnfidence in the CPD. She doesn't trust that the Police can secure her family so she will hire private goons.
Smart Officers looking toward the future would recognize private security for elites can be much more profitable than patroling a beat. Grab a few former military friends and get some biz cards printed up, hang a shingle. Jungle won't be getting any more tame.

Yes!!!! Exactly what I was thinking!! The problem is with her is she is such an ass kisser, she will find someone to stick around. Imagine only having 3-4 years on and being sent to mayors detail.
VRI is useless when it comes to providing information to tourists. VRI coppers don't know anything about the downtown area and refuse to even learn. Leave it up to us to ruin a good thing. Also, standing around in groups of ten, blocking the sidewalks, backs to the public, ignoring the problems that exist. Maybe if they were effective then we would have a case to keep VRI, but we don't. I don't want to hear any whining when you can't make your summer home mortgage.
Let's hope that she puts as much energy into looking into the teachers/administrators and their union as she will the police and their union
I applaud the novel idea and the break with tradition.
There’s been so many clouted assholes on mayoral details over the years that just abuse the hell out of the system virtually with impunity cause they’re on “the detail”.
Well played Lori.
Now will Rahm’s armed butlers sue like the crybaby’s that we’re on Shortshanks detail did??
What about the police sitting on her house? Will that be replaced by her own people??????
I know some officers who volunteered for her campaign. In the hopes that it she wins,they would be on her security detail. Why a private security firm?
So everyone, listen up, yes her detail is gone and yes security will be provided by Monterrey Security, the detail will be run by Retired commander who now works for them. No overtime and will only work 8 hour tours at 35.00 an hour using all retired ops.
And in bigger news. They just increased the buffer for body cam from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Thats right, a full two minutes of everything you were doing prior to activating your camera. Hope you werent on the ahitter.

I call BS. VRI foot patrol is all over Michigan Ave and the public and businesses love it. They actually need more VRI on Michigan Ave. The last thing on her mind right now is to drive around looking for VRI patrol. It’s a great program for the community. Sometimes I walk 8-10 miles a tour and get thanked by countless members of the public and businesses. You obviously have no time on and can’t get VRI so you’re jealous.
When sworn in Lightfoot will be a peace officer by State law. She should protect herself. Go to a local gun store and purchase a weapon. Or go to the Department armorer and sign one out.

No the assumption of that the officers are paid anyways is incorrect. Those are 24 officers which mean 24 more need to be hired to staff department positions. You need to count the full salary and benefits as to the true cost of the protection detail.
Who pays for the wife's office space, furniture, cleaning, etc.? It damn well better not be the taxpayer!
Ok, I'm for getting rid of the Mayor's Police Detail. But this does not impress me. If you want to impress me..Mayor Littlefoot then do the following. Do not call the districts for a Police Unit and a Supervisor for every event you'll be attending. So, some of you officers might be forgetting that Mayors detail is one part of it and before arriving on Location theres will be a few units along with a Supervisor from that District that is the second part of the additional detail. Once again holding down manpower until the event is over.
Maybe, just maybe, we will finally have a police department not completely controlled by the 5th Floor.
Doesn’t Lori’s wife already work on the 4th floor. I know that she works for the city.
Will the security company be in charge of drive the daughter to and from school too.
And will the wife also be getting the free services that were given to all the other
mayors and their families at taxpayers dollar?
Anyone know who what company will get that contract?
I don't believe it.
Who's going to hold her coat, purse,
get her tea, etc?
OT: word is that Leo the great, aka Ric Flair was at Lightfoot’s transition meeting this morning, he’s telling anyone that will listen that
the Supe’s spot is his for the taking.
Good send they all to 003 for refresher training
Just heard on the news that Lori is also cutting the 50 alderjerks power and their committee budgets!!
I am starting to like the Light!!!!
This going to be an interesting year.
If she can rid the CPDs top heavy staff, punish the corrupt cheaters aka eddie Johnson, fenner, carter etc, then hell I will guard her for free!!!
The “Commander” of the mayoral security detail does not have to be a Sgt. Whoever he or she is gets Commander pay but they can be a police officer. The mayor decides who it is, not the department.
So what about the former Daley body guards that were (hiding) detailed to 001 and 018 where the DC’s had no control over them.
‘Given’ foot posts and when/if shortshanks needs an escort to a function or at his beckoned call, they are pulled from the district and ‘assigned ‘ to the Daley detail!
Put those prima donnas back on the street and make them BID according to seniority to a district.
And how will it work out when for example Digby Security gets the mayor’s detail and at an event they are trying to give ‘orders ‘ to the on duty police PO’s Sgts., Lt’s, DC etc.
I realize we are a semi military organization but that’s like having a civilian high school ROTC student giving orders to an active US Army General.
How will that work out?
No one ever leaves the KGB
This is a good thing but I wouldn’t see this as a savings. Those coppers are still gonna get paychecks, just not sgts pay. Now, you will need to pay a private security firm ALOT of money for security. We aren’t talking securitas here, but an actual security company. They will need a fleet of trucks or cars 24/7, security officers 24/7, fuel etc. the going rate for a armed “dignitary” security detail, the company usually charges about 130 dollars per hour per officer. After insurance payments, vehicle, fuel etc the security officer will normally make 30-40 an hour. Either way, you are talking 130 an hour per officer. So per day, just to have one body hired, more than likely 8-12 hour shifts it would cost 3150 per day for one security spot filled. Figure them to have 4-7 and your cost is now 12480-21480 per day. Let’s say though over night they will have only 3 security officers you are still in the ballpark of 9000 a day. Multiply by 1 year and it’s about 3.2 million dollars per year and you are still paying those coppers to be paid sitting in a district. Even at 60 dollars an hour which for a security company is garbage pay and won’t even pay for insurance it comes out to about 2.2 million a year. I don’t see this as cost effective. If you have 14 officers it’s still only 1.4 million at sgts pay. Add in a few sgts getting commanders pay and you are still under the 2 million mark. I don’t see the city paying 1-1.5 million more for a private security company.
If it’s true that’s awesome. She should audit the detective division and throw the administrative dicks in the assignment rotation. Then she should go to Forensics and Do the same to the administrative E.T’s.

Remember, Lightfoot is not going into the Mayor's office looking to steal, like shortshanks and tiny dancer did.
She will definitely need security to beat back her adoring fans.
Because she’s going to be the bestest most awesomest keenest
Mayor shitcago and the world has ever ever seen.
I have a tingle running up my leg.
OT: 2 minute camera buffer starting today. Buffer mode will no longer be 30 seconds, it was increased to 2 minutes effective today.
But the police at her house is ok?
And let me guess what private security company?
Retired police security guards?
Its a smooth move shows she is a rebel and she dislike the POPO.
Is Felipe even a Sgt? Missed that one if he did. Ok Sanchez must’ve snuck it in
That’s a win for 014.
Don’t expect anyone going back to patrol and I think the Airports are at capacity.
Its more likely these slackers will return back to (Unit 542/543) providing taxi, pet walking and dry cleaning pickups for visiting Hollywooders.
The private security detail will be a real circus side show...which purple mohawks, piercings and zoots would be allowable. And a Prius.
Love the fact that the guy who insisted that BG have free reign is the guy who's career is doa.
Still in progress tally
1 Commander
2 Captains
1 Dep Chief
:::::::OT::::::
On the down-low, watch commander allowing his “activity” officers to go IOD status in order to avoid the CTA detail this summer.
Are these guards going to be armed?
If so it is going to take a while to train and certify them.
Maybe they will be the "Special Armed Mayors Police".
If just guards they will have no power of arrest.
They will have to go through event metal detectors.
This sounds like a disaster in the making.
The present suck up body guard detail, with trips around the world escort side benefits, is gonna love being in patrol.
Vaneco security at your service!
So it begins.
The cloistering of the faithful.

Prepare for the queen bee ruling buzzing!!!!
Speaking of waste...why is there a Chief, Deputy Chief, commander and captain all in the same units doing the same thing? I saw the Deputy Chief of area south detectives on tv. Isn’t there a commander there to? Why all the exempts?
I'm confused as to why these Chicago politicians feel the need to have security at all. I recently flew on a commercial flight with a sitting US Senator and his wife were fellow passengers. This man is much more important than the a Mayor or City Clerk from Chicago. Guess what? No security. I think that if they feel the need for security they can foot the bill themselves. Bugsy wasted millions on bodyguards that coulda been better used elsewhere. WTF is going on here?
Welcome them all back in a blue shirt and days off cancelled for the summer
She is doing this because she will have them sign a letter of Confidentiality and then nothing will come out about her shady side. She should pay for her own security.
OT: as we all sink deeper into debt, here’s a few nuggets known to all SCC readers. Details are simply in one place. Only thing missing are facts 21: deep, systemic and unleashed demonrat corruption and 22: theft of pension dollars to pay other friends and family projects.
https://wirepoints.org/illinois-crisis-20-facts-pritzker-doesnt-want-ordinary-illinoisans-to-know/
Hire your moving company now, though with illegals being shipped all over the country (in past only to build demonrat areas), none of us are safe from rising picket picking or violence.
Stay fetal. We don’t
It is about time they all need to be removed way too much money unlimited overtime making well over 100,000+ a year plus they get to uniform allowance is twice a year yes they do and sergeants and commanders Pension every last one of them are just a patrolman even the commander and there’s two of those plus cars free gas expense accounts it’s ridiculous. Also make sure they remove the city clerk city treasurer and any other details that are not needed along with the squad cars beyond marks that they have how many what if you were assigned to those details! Then over here we have tax and spend:
Gov. J.B. Pritzker set to unveil $41.5 billion ‘Rebuild Illinois’ capital plan that includes $1.8 billion in new and increased taxes
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-met-ritzker-illinois-capital-plan-20190517-story.html
Who's paying for the 'private' security? Is it Lightgroot herself, out of her own pocket, or is the City still paying? Is the amount more or less?
And frankly, why do any of these politicians have police protection? The Mayor? LOL. IF the City is as safe as they claim it to be (such that no one needs a firearm, CTA is safe, etc), then why ought they to have police protection? Fuck 'em - let them go about their lives like the rest of us.
Screw the drivers, and all that bullshit too. Let them drive their own vehicle, navigate traffic, park it, and deal with all the nonsense they foist upon the rest of us.
And don't even get me started on the schmucks that keep their phalynx of protection after they're OUT of office.
Let her wife have her office. St Maggie of Bridgeport wasted a whole lot more money and we have a f**king park named after her.
Funny how everyone is interpreting her disbanding of the mayor detail as a good sign. My question is why would the mayor of a major metropolitan decide to give up armed cops as her personal security for some Monterrey goofs? I think it is rather obvious that the sight of police is probably unpleasant to her and she would rather not empower cops that way. Basically, I see it as an anti police measure. If she wanted to cut waste and make the force more productive she would disband some of the worthless gigs the department comes up with, such as the new and ridiculous 025 district community policing program who just get park checks all day long, and the countless House mice being hidden inside throughout the city. The mayor detail guys will just get another ‘do nothing’ gig after she kicks hem to the curb
Heard they are changing the start times by an hour? Anyone else hear this?

Who's paying for the 'private' security? Is it Lightgroot herself, out of her own pocket, or is the City still paying? Is the amount more or less?
And frankly, why do any of these politicians have police protection? The Mayor? LOL. IF the City is as safe as they claim it to be (such that no one needs a firearm, CTA is safe, etc), then why ought they to have police protection? Fuck 'em - let them go about their lives like the rest of us.
Screw the drivers, and all that bullshit too. Let them drive their own vehicle, navigate traffic, park it, and deal with all the nonsense they foist upon the rest of us.
And don't even get me started on the schmucks that keep their phalynx of protection after they're OUT of office.

Agreed why do we waste millions,and they have their own "command center," 2 guys multiple police vehicles and transport vans for extra family and friends transportation. Unlimited overtime commanders and the rest sergeant pension and when they work any special while you're busting your ass the details guy next to you is making sergeants pay rate. So many new gas eating suburbans and tahies gee thought city was "going green," more lies! Dump them all Lori that would be a start!
Two minute buffer for body cameras because 95 percent of “positive community interaction” event number requests were found to be made up lies.

This is a good thing but I wouldn’t see this as a savings. Those coppers are still gonna get paychecks, just not sgts pay. Now, you will need to pay a private security firm ALOT of money for security. We aren’t talking securitas here, but an actual security company. They will need a fleet of trucks or cars 24/7, security officers 24/7, fuel etc. the going rate for a armed “dignitary” security detail, the company usually charges about 130 dollars per hour per officer. After insurance payments, vehicle, fuel etc the security officer will normally make 30-40 an hour. Either way, you are talking 130 an hour per officer. So per day, just to have one body hired, more than likely 8-12 hour shifts it would cost 3150 per day for one security spot filled. Figure them to have 4-7 and your cost is now 12480-21480 per day. Let’s say though over night they will have only 3 security officers you are still in the ballpark of 9000 a day. Multiply by 1 year and it’s about 3.2 million dollars per year and you are still paying those coppers to be paid sitting in a district. Even at 60 dollars an hour which for a security company is garbage pay and won’t even pay for insurance it comes out to about 2.2 million a year. I don’t see this as cost effective. If you have 14 officers it’s still only 1.4 million at sgts pay. Add in a few sgts getting commanders pay and you are still under the 2 million mark. I don’t see the city paying 1-1.5 million more for a private security company.
5/17/2019 11:43:00 AM
Nope your wrong you must be on that detail and know your gone. It will be $30.00 per hour vehicles will be city m plated, so it will be 1/2 price of the current valets. The contract is signed already, now back on the beat young copper we need the help. Total cost will be over 1/2 less and better not bitching coverage like the current primadonnas, and no hit on pension for commanders and sergeant pension without any tests to be promoted that is winning and change we will believe in!

If you have ever spoken to the commander of Area South you’d understand why the deputy chief did the talking. The commander of the area couldn’t Explain how to make a ham sandwich, let alone discuss the details of an investigation. He never comes to work. What a disgrace to the police department.
FYI, the tall white guy who is with Lori owns the security company, he is a retired FBI agent. The really interesting part is that his wife is a big time lobbyist down state in Springfield.

I call BS. VRI foot patrol is all over Michigan Ave and the public and businesses love it. They actually need more VRI on Michigan Ave. The last thing on her mind right now is to drive around looking for VRI patrol. It’s a great program for the community. Sometimes I walk 8-10 miles a tour and get thanked by countless members of the public and businesses. You obviously have no time on and can’t get VRI so you’re jealous.

Cut more waste. No more take home cars. Put them all back into patrol. Everyone should be driving to work in their own damm cars like the rest of the working world. Save BIG $$$.
Lightfoot's unloading CPD security indicates major changes in the CPD are coming. Think about it why would you want the folks you want to control and dramtically change protect you. Get ready for civilian's being appointed in the districts in command or co-command roles.
She already mentioned it prior to the election. It's coming.
Be safe kids.
If anyone paid attention to Mayor Lightfoot during her campaign, she was surrounded by former federal agents acting as her security detail. Remember she was a US attorney, and she did make friends with lots of agents back then, who are now retired. She wants to put boots back on the street with cpd, and it makes sense for her to go with retired law enforcement agents.

Oh, she’s definitely trimming the budget. Expect big cuts to court OT via an agreement with the CCSAO to stop insisting officers and detectives come to hearings where they know they won’t be needed. She knows CPD is top heavy, so expect the ridiculous ranks of a
Area XOs, deputy chiefs, etc. to be thinned. She has no problem culling the herd as her brand isn’t on any of those one-trick ponies. Clausen, aka Pickles, picked up lots of his intelligence during his time at CPD. He also knows how unqualified the brass is. Bye-bye “Noblemen” and ladies. Intelligence matters to Lightfoot in leadership, not race.
Will they be State Police? I don’t think the state will train non LE to be ECSO I certified. Might be an issue down the road. N,see they change the law.

Private security will only be answerable to civilian use of force. Police officers won’t be able to protect her with consideration to the consent decree hanging over their head and the extremely curtailed use of force policy. What’s good for me is not for thee!!! Why would she want a driver who is overpaid and spends his time driving through red lights and collects tickets to taint her office and won’t be able to provide protection? Self-preservation is at the heart of this decision!!
Vri, federal grant money so doubt it going away any time soon.
Well they won’t get the higher pension unless they retire now. They average the last 4 years of your highest salary. So unless they plan to leave in the next 3 years and a day they just wasted 8 years being a highly paid chauffeur.
5/17/2019 08:30:00 AM
I know you are the police because you’re an expert about something you heard from someone that heard it from someone else. They take your last ten years there Sparky, and base your pension on the 4 highest paying years. P.S. the “a day” is only good for year 29.
She should go without armed security.
Progressives are always telling how bad guns are and how they target people and folkses of color and what not.
Be the change you want to see Lori, be the change.
Word is the court OT games are over. The court section is being re-vamped with new people and the all day everyday is gonna get you fired/indicted. The warning has been given and those who do not heed it will regret it.
This can be worse. No police powers and I'll bet each one will get a take home ride and a 6 figure salary. What simply needs to be done is reduce the size of the detail, place a LT or Capt in charge and be done with it. She needs a driver and 2 bodyguards - nothing else. You don't need an advance team, 3-4 body guards, a follow car and a house detail. These useless mayors get as much protection as the President. It's a joke. If she hires private guards, then they should not be paid with taypayer money. That I could live with.
Yep, Leo was there, pandering for all he's worth and I'm sure kissing a lot of ass for his next super=cop job. I wish this guy would fade into the past just like McCarthy.
1st thing on her "agenda" is cutting costs! Lori looked pretty pissed on tv that the little midgets administration lied to her about a $700 million dollar deficit when its CONDIDERABLY more! God only know "HOW MUCH MORE..since that wasn't revealed. I would be willing to bet that she has her law team already working on loop holes to get rid of the new $95 million dollar academy ( which I hope she does), Alderman's perks, powers and other shit. I see that as a good start for her. If she does decide to "Hate the police" Lori will have a VERY difficult time with crime in the city. So lori work with us and we work with you...otherwise, good luck!

This man is much more important than the a Mayor or City Clerk from Chicago. Guess what? No security. I think that if they feel the need for security they can foot the bill themselves. Bugsy wasted millions on bodyguards that coulda been better used elsewhere. WTF is going on here?

WRONG on this part, the day on anything over 20 years adds 2.5% to your pension.
Lets not forget, the city already has its own security, The buildings downtown, GSA and also Aviation. She can very easily pull from there starting day one.
My question is since the detail is being replaced with non-cpd, will the officers keep their current pay grade? I say that because as I remember when OEMC replaced CPD dispatchers with their dispatchers, the city was required to pay those officers at the D2 rate in the districts they were reassigned.

Everything your hearing might be true. Her security will have to follow traffic laws and they ARE NOT LAW ENFORCEMENT. Which means they can’t blow through lights and use sirens and flashing lights. Watch this debacle unfold. Her security has been told NO access to federal buildings and they will receive NO credentials. There is a problem here because she wants to keep her life private. Even Emmanuel realized he needed a security survey of his house. Not Lori, watch this stupid shit unfold.

29 and a day.....you get your last years of service raise at 25 years.that means you have been in the highest pay grade for a complete four years at 29 yrs .you also get your last 2.5 % pension raise at the 29 yr..no more money or raise after 29 and day.

A day does not add 2.5 % to your pension. Your pension is determined by the highest 48 months of the last 10 years. If you stay the day it goes up 2.5% but of the same 48 months

How can you have 23 years on if you are only 52. You have to be 21 years to be hired and nobody gets hired right at 21
New guys coming on are going to be surprised if they retire after completing 20 years. Formula for new hired is 75 percent of the highest 8 of the last 10. When they figure it out the first 5 will be at the 15 year rate as you don’t get the 20 year raise until after you complete 20 years and the other 3 years will be at the 10 year rate. Big difference

Here’s a hint: It’s a trick question. Nobody from the pension board or union can answer either...

How can you have 23 years on if you are only 52. You have to be 21 years to be hired and nobody gets hired right at 21

WRONG on this part, the day on anything over 20 years adds 2.5% to your pension.
A day does not add 2.5 % to your pension. Your pension is determined by the highest 48 months of the last 10 years. If you stay the day it goes up 2.5% but of the same 48 months

They are saying or more asking if you get the credit for the year? Drop the 4 best years out last ten bullshit.
The pension 50% at twenty years and every year
after that you get 2.5% more until you max out at 30 a.k.a 29 and a day.
Nobody is asking about the salary that a pension is based on, they are asking about the percentage of it you will receive.
