Details of the Mayor's proposed $2.8 billion budget were released to the public today and will be presented to City Council on Monday. The mayor says the budget will not cut services, but rely on staff layoffs to cover an $87 million funding gap. He plans to cut about 300 employees and 360 budgeted-but-vacant positions. The budget sets aside $38 million to maintain older city facilities -- $25 million of which must be borrowed.
