The highest-paid Suffolk police officers could earn close to $200,000 annually by 2020 if the agreement between the county and the Police Benevolent Association is approved.
Over the term of the proposed contract announced earlier this month, the highest-paid officers would see their base pay rise 38 percent between the first half of 2013 and 2020. Officers would receive no raises in 2012.
