The Fort Worth City Council will vote on a new police contract that will prevent cuts to the department Tuesday morning.
The new contract with the Fort Worth Police Officer's Association would last four years, through the 2016 fiscal year. It would cost Fort Worth $34.5 million.
Over the course of the contract, all police officers would get a 6 percent pay increase, in addition to any step raises the officer may receive.
There are more than 1,500 police officers in Fort Worth. More than 80 percent of them have voted in favor of the contract.
The discussion is expected to be heated, because city leaders will have to reconcile their desire to avoid police cuts with the fact that Fort Worth faces a $50 million budget shortfall next year.
The City Council will meet at 10 a.m. in downtown Fort Worth.
