* Estimated cost for annualization at FY93 COLA is $1,778,000. However, due to the
civilianization of House Police positions and other cost savings realized as a result of
scheduled retirements during FY93, sufficient savings were realized to fund most of
the FY93 COLA cost.

** Administrative increases include cost for rank adjustments for PFC (30 month
satisfactory service), PVT w/ Training (successful completion of rookie training), and
longevities based on length of service.
