The City of Austin and the Austin Police Association (APA) reached a Tentative Agreement (TA) on Monday, Sept. 23, for a five-year contract.
 
Initially, it was announced that the agreement would be scheduled for consideration by the Austin City Council on Oct. 10. However, in the interest of allowing more time to review and to gather additional public input, the TA will be considered at the Oct. 24 Council meeting.

A briefing on the TA is scheduled for the upcoming Work Session on Oct. 8, at which public input is welcome.
