We’re thrilled to announce that last night, August 19th, the Jacksonville Beach City Council approved significant investments in our police force for the City of Jacksonville Beach Police Department with a new salary structure.
Over the last several months, the Jacksonville Beach Police Department has made several investments in technology, equipment, and most importantly, our personnel:
• Salary structures: Starting pay for our officers is jumping to $65,312, up to $72,592 with qualifications and a new salary structure to support recruitment and retention.
• Expanding the team: We’re adding 4 new officers to our force to better serve our community.
• Investing in the future: A new program will sponsor and pay for cadets through the police academy, ensuring a strong pipeline of talent.
• Technology and equipment: Upgrades to our downtown camera system and the addition of new license plate readers will bolster our crime-fighting capabilities, plus the addition of a new SWAT van.
These enhancements are a testament to our commitment to public safety and to recognizing the hard work and dedication of our officers. Jacksonville Beach safety remains a top priority for us all, and this investment ensures we have the best team in place, now and in the future, to protect our community.
