"This agreement reflects the genuine goodwill that both sides brought to the table," Ossining Mayor Victoria Gearity said.
Under the terms of the agreement, the officers will receive "significant" salary increases, but will also be tripling contributions to their health insurance premiums.
"Our department does an outstanding job of serving Ossining," Gearity said. Everyday, they are in our schools and our neighborhoods fostering the relationships that are the hallmark of their commitment to community policing.
