The city also will not hire 200 new sanitation workers who would have been added next month.

This was an important date, because the city had hired us.

On March 11, 2013 the city hired seven police officers, raising its staff to 124 people.

This is the first time the city has ever hired a man to do what might be a dangerous job.

The city could hire 3,000 to 5,000 new officers, he said.

That is probably because cities with high crime rates hire more officers.

"That's who the city should be hiring and paying to do this work."

The city has hired 12 additional officers in the last four years (2009/2012).

He said the city had hired an outside lawyer to assess the settlement.

The city has hired 1,500 new officers in the current fiscal year, using mostly Federal money, officials said.
