Could 70 Town Workers Be Soon Headed To The Chopping Block ?

There are different ways to fill the huge hole in our 2009 budget.  There seems to be one direction our Supervisor is headed.  Thus far Mohan hasn’t had a meeting with any of his department heads to talk about what they need next year and he needs this information.  He can’t make a responsible budget to submit to the Town Board for them work on.

If Mohan is headed in the direction I believe he is, over 70 town workers could be laid off. The highway department would be hit the hardest with as many as 50 workers being let go. Mohan’s plan looks like it would cut workers from every department, including secretaries.
