We need to cut spending in a big way until the city realizes the full fallout from the job loses in our community. I would also like to see an end to the sidewalk implementation program. Having citizens spend thousands of dollars to install or repair sidewalks after they just lost a job is ludicrous. People are going to be struggling just to keep their homes.
