seen officers retire marginally earlier, and we have to figure how much of that is attributed to the drop program or wage increases or other pressures going on in the economy, so it is an imperfect and incomplete sample size, but those are the conclusions. chair chu: take you. supervisor kim, do you have any more questions? supervisor kim: yes. were they still eligible for the pension? or did they lose that? >> for many, they have what has been contributed to their account. supervisor kim: it is how much is there. >> on a monthly basis, it provides for the contribution, and at the end of their participation, it is provided to the officer. supervisor kim: thank you. chair chu: thank you. supervisor mirkarimi? supervisor mirkarimi: they had provided us with a printout that said there are 2500 class members, sworn officers in the police department. could you just break down what the actual active and inactive, what the real number is? how many sworn peace officers we actually have? >> the earlier slide that i put up, excuse me, a supervisor. i would just read it. we have 1812. we have 163 of

>> absent the drop program? i do not think it would have an impact in the coming fiscal year because people are still able to sign up for the drop program even if it is canceled. so, if the life of the program goes for three years beyond the end date of sign up. supervisor farrell: right. let's think generically. if those officers were not there. >> yes. definitely fewer officers over time. we would want recruits. we would want new officers. it is not dropped for overtime. it is really officers were overtime. -- it is not drop or overtime. it is really officers or overtime. supervisor campos: is in a follow-up on supervisor farrell 's question. the police department has a staffing mandate. and yet, not withstanding, you are reducing overtime. so, it would be interesting to find out exactly how it is that this trend is going in the right direction here, but not in the other departments? >> again, i think the requirements the chief was talking about earlier are the main difference. police are able to reallocate res

we produced a report on the drop program last friday. as we have talked about, the goal of the program if the voters to adopt it is to make a cost neutral program, in our office is charged with evaluating that. generally, we find it is unlikely to achieve cost neutrality going forward. this is because we have the cost of the program in terms of an enhanced retirement payments for participants in the program that enter the drop. there is a cost that is unlikely to be exceeded by the savings that result in officers that remains slightly longer, in terms of avoiding the need to run academy classes, avoiding the need to pay people retiree health benefits. as early as normally would, and there are other costs to be avoided. if the program is extended going forward, it is likely to add approximately $6 million per year to the city's required contribution that we need to make to retirement because of the enhanced benefits. about $6 million in costs, and this needs to be weighed against operating savings against those who are retiring later. thos

the drop, and then there are 25 that have not completed it for a total of 183. supervisor chiu: where do you stand on what we should do in this area? >> where i stand, supervisors, is that this program is not cost neutral. the original intent was that it was going to be cost neutral. one of the other issues with the program, i note others have this leeway, and you would have to take this back. i would ask you please to reevaluate the particular person who is in the program to about it with their productivity to determine whether they should continue in the program. i know the way it is designed in the city does not allow me to do this. those are my two concerns, to evaluate the productivity of someone in the program each year to make sure they are doing what they need to do, kumbaya and the other item is that it is not cost neutral. u -- supervisor chiu: continuing this option or having something like a new academy class, where do you stand on that point >> several hundred people who would immediately tried to enroll in the program. chair chu: could i ask you to
