City staff propose a combination of measures to address a budget deficit. A projected shortfall of $158 million is anticipated. To close this gap, cuts and increases in fees are being considered.

Parks and libraries are among the departments that may be affected by these cuts. The city is working to balance its budget over two years, but the council only adopts the budget one year at a time.

Further details on the proposed budget measures are available, including the amount of cuts being considered over a two-year period and the amount to be voted on for the upcoming year.
