City Budget May Be Reduced?

To All COLA LO members,

In the past two weeks several articles have been published about the proposed budget for LO.   It's under scrutiny as the costs continue to rise while revenues remain flat.   

Board member Dave Berg published an article last week about the key questions facing all residents:  Budgets Mean Choices while other residents asked not to reduce specific areas Don't Eliminate.   At the same time the media published Major Cuts? and City Considers Cuts.  

 

All of these illustrate a changing dynamic in LO and one which has been confirmed by the recent community survey 2013 LO Community Survey.   Residents want to ensure the city spends its resources on core services.   

Its a dynamic long in existence but which has only recently been embraced by our new council.
