Budget season, take two.
City Hall is abuzz with one word: "budget."
Calls across the street today were met with harried responses like "How do you assure someone with this many cuts?"
Cuts are looming, of amounts to be determined. No department will be unaffected, and it is likely that city services will change on some level, although it is not yet clear how much.
See Tuesday's paper for a full analysis. (Actually, you'd better check Monday's paper too, it's not yet clear what day the story will run.) I thought we'd wrapped up the budget back in November, thanks to the state's own budget crisis, we are now seeing the budget revisited. Hopefully this will be the last time this year.
What a great way to start the holiday weekend.

this is what happens when you don't have enough money, and still try to build a rec center. you lay people off, cut services and with the money you save, put it towards two basketball courts. (there was 1 there already)
and what's going to happens next year whan the $400,000 debt service meets the $250,000 per year operation fee. does the city have $700,000 under a mattress somewhere?
