Public safety and general government services will not be reduced as city works through $63 million shortfall
As we continue to work through a $63 million shortfall for the budget currently before the City Council, we want to assure the public that basic city services such as public safety and general government will not be reduced.
We have worked closely with the library board and parks and recreation board to identify enough funding for those boards to provide residents the current services that had previously been reduced due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The mayor discussed these matters and addressed employee questions during a tele town hall on Friday, August 28, 2020.
