He explained: With tax revenue plummeting and the city’s pension fund taking a beating in the stock market, he has to cut $108 million in city spending over the next seven months and $1 billion over the next five years. Not budging from his original plan, he will freeze planned tax cuts, close 11 libraries, eliminate 800 government positions, and disband seven fire companies, among other significant measures.
