Annual Operational Costs

If Council wishes to establish a Security division, dedicated positions would be required. The table below provides annual costs for positions that may form part of a security structure. The titles and salaries are assumptions based on current organizational structures and similar positions, and may change following the job evaluation process.

Position Title	Annual Salary	Total with Fringe
Manager, Corporate Security	$132,203	$175,830
Supervisor, Security Operations	$103,537	$137,704
Supervisor, Standards Security Systems and	$103,537	$137,704
Security Guards	$51,917	$69,049
Administrative and Technical Support	$86,351	$114,846

If Phase 1 as described in the discussion section is implemented in 2021, the total annual salary budget for the 3 positions would be $451,237 including fringe benefits. Additional budget would be required for vehicles, computers, uniforms, equipment, licensing, training, etc.

The various departments that currently use security guard services have operating budgets that could be used to offset part of the cost of in-house security guards.

In addition to annual operating costs, one-time capital costs would likely be required to create a Security Control Centre including expenditures for items such as furniture, lockers, computer equipment, and building renovations.

A follow-up report will be forthcoming with a detailed financial analysis should Council approve the creation of a security division.
