I do not remember the last time budget cuts affected promos in the past. Job has continued to promote , even during covid. Budget cuts can affect new hires yes, but not civil service promotion. The city has a huge budget. Our measly promotions dont put a dent on it.

Back in the financial meltdown, the city stopped hiring cops unless you were a cadet/ traffic agent/ school safety. This was 2008-2010. If they stop hiring cops, they need less supervisors. They wont completely stop promoting but itll slowdown. This is just a scenario Ive seen play out before. there is a class of about 1200 in the academy right now Which is good for now. If they continue to hire, then promotions will continue. If they dont itll slow down

There are two classes in right now. Both well over 1,000 (say 1,100+). The outgoing mayor Adams appropriated funds for two classes of recruits, 1 in August and another in December. Thats over 2,300 cops . One class graduates in March and the other in July . Since our financial year is July - July , the new budget will start July 1,2026. The question being will Mamdani reappropriate the $$$ to hire 5k new cops in next 5 years to get our workforce up near 40,000. If we keep hiring and the classes of 06,07 and 08 retire after 20 years, all ranks will be replaced all the way up to chief.

I'll tell you this Adams did this by Design. He basically backed mandani into a corner. If he takes the money that was supposed to be used to hire more cops away then everyone including the news is going to have a field day on him basically saying that he defunded the cops even though he said he wasn't going to and believe me he's going to receive a lot of backlash possibly even from the police commissioner and maybe even all the way to the governor. So there is a chance that he may just leave it alone or he may just completely take it away and think that no one is going to say anything and try to basically talk his way out of defunding us but it's not going to work

Yes agreed on both accounts. I think Addams did this as a fail safe and put into play despite Mamdani winning. Although he said he is all for public safety , he also said he doesnt see the need for more cops and that 35,000 is enough . With crime happening in all Boros and if he fails to keep his word to hire 5k new cops is a recipe for disaster as it looks like hes defunding. Completely cancelling overtime would be one area to save massive amounts of cash and reapply to his agenda .
Im curious who would complain if he took $$$ for new cops. Would it be the people who didnt vote for him or would it be all citizens of NYC ? Im positive all unions will be in an uproar in NYPD but he hates the police . What will this prove to his constituents ?

Sounds good and makes more sense. .... but I think the World Cup matches are all going to be in New Jersey unless they're going to have something else going on

262 List Numbers have to be called to hit the 3/4 mark on the list with 1 year to go. With 1218, its avg of 304 a year. We are 42 ahead. 1218 over 48 months is roughly 25. So anything above 25 a promotion puts us in a surplus. If 50 get called for February we are 67 numbers ahead of the list average. This list will be done by the 4 year mark.

Well those people either failed the exam and are miserable losers or they were promoted already and hate that they didnt have a hook to get where the wanted.

With only 10 Lts getting made in Januarythere is no way the entire list will get made before it expires. Are there even any LT vacancies?!

We are a few hundred short of LTs from just 2 years ago. Theres approximately 675 LTs with over 20 years on now and can leave the moment the money train ends. Plus theres approximately 100 captains on terminal meaning theres 100 promotions and that rank is below where it needs to be. The list will get made just a matter of fast
Lets hope for more in February or March.
10 just went in on the 21st BMOC Class. JANUARY 30, 2026. 1st class of 2026. (just writing this for when we look back for reference)
