Oakland’s City Council voted in February to boost the pay of the Frazier Group, the city’s contractor charged with investigating police abuses during the Occupy protests, by $100,000. The extra money was intended to help the contractor process the unexpected influx of new complaintsagainst officers flooding their office.
Now it seems the city is set again to increase the Frazier Group’s pay, this time by a quarter million dollars. The investigator’s total pay increase over the last two months will be $350,000 if approved, making it one of Oakland’s single largest contracts.
