City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito on Sunday unveiled new details about her plan to hire 1,000 cops — while Mayor de Blasio continued to insist that the police force is fine "in its current state."
"We need to increase the overall headcount of the department," Mark-Viverito contended in a press release.
She said that, according to calculations made by council staffers, the total cost of the plan would hit more than $69 million in 2016, its first year, and rise to a total of $111 million by 2019.
The cost per new officer next year is projected to be $90,000, including salary and benefits, she said. Seven years in, it would climb to $181,000.
The council speaker said the city planned to make up some of the money through cuts to police overtime.
As The Post exclusively reported earlier this month, Police Commissioner Bill Bratton got into a shouting match with a top mayoral aide in pushing for the new cops, then denied it. De Blasio later insisted the force was "good . . . in its current state.''
Asked what de Blasio thought about the details of Mark-Viverito's plan Sunday, a rep, Amy Spitalnick, said, "The mayor's most recent comments still hold. The executive budget will come out this spring, and we look forward to working with the council throughout the budget process."
