In addition to the wage increases, the agreement will incur fringe benefit costs, which are estimated to be around $760,989 for FY 26 and $771,815 for FY 27. Municipalities that employ resident state troopers will also bear some costs, estimated at $301,675 for FY 26 and $305,967 for FY 27. The resolution reflects the ongoing financial commitments associated with the state's law enforcement personnel and aims to ensure fair compensation for the members of the Connecticut State Police Union.
