Budget proposal increases Dallas Police Department's budget by $35.5 million

The proposed budget would increase DPD's funding by $35.5 million, which is a much different approach than two years ago when the city cut millions in funding for police overtime. If approved, the city will spend more than $1 billion on police and fire for the first time. That?s 60% percent of the city's general fund budget.
