The Daytona Beach City Commission on Oct. 15 adopted an ordinance increasing the hourly rates charged for outside details of police officers, firefighters and traffic engineer employees who provide services for outside persons and vendors.

The ordinance amends previously adopted ordinance language to set higher rates based on the types of services and dates of service; the change affects how the city invoices private parties for off‑duty public‑safety and traffic‑control staffing.

Why it matters: Raising detail rates can change event and contractor budgeting across the city and can be used to recover city costs for staffing traffic control, public safety and event coverage. The ordinance was presented on second reading and approved without public comment.

Vote: The commission approved the ordinance on second reading by a voice vote, recorded as 6‑0 in favor.

Implementation: Staff will update the city’s schedule of rates and billing processes to reflect the new hourly amounts.
