City Council Bickers Over Budget Cuts, Public Safety Layoffs
I joined hundreds of people at yesterday's study session in which the City Council discussed proposals to plug Tucson's structural budget deficit. The city must make $32 million in cuts this year with an additional $36 million next year. City Manager Mike Letcher actually laid out the problem quite well: There are no more one-time fixes, only permanent cuts. Big ones for this year, and even more for next year. But the proposal includes massive layoffs for public safety.

If Scott Brown can win Massachusetts, then we can take back Tucson!Hi everyone, I’ve got a feeling I wasn’t the only one up past midnight watching the Scott Brown election coverage!
