Mayor delivering speech to City Council unveiling fiscal plan that will close budget gaps without layoffs or increasing taxes.
Mayor Brandon Johnson on Wednesday is proposing a $16.6 billion budget plan for next year that holds the line on property taxes and fees while modestly chipping away at his bold, progressive agenda that he indicates remains his North Star. In his first major fiscal test as mayor, Johnson was expected to deliver a speech unveiling his budget that will seek to close a projected $538 million gap without layoffs or increasing taxes.
Johnson’s prepared speech alludes to both more “beds and lower costs” for their shelters, while Guzman said part of the net increase in full time positions stems from extra staffers in the Family and Support Services and Emergency Management departments to respond to the new arrivals. Johnson in his budget address sought to place the onus of their care more on the federal and state government.
