Show Notes
The City Cast team is here to round up the news of the week, and it’s another big one. Executive producer Hayley Sperling digs into potential budget cuts that are becoming clearer for the city should it (or voters) decide not to move forward with a property tax referendum. That could mean fewer street repairs, shorter library hours, and the end of Goodman Pool?! Meanwhile, host Bianca Martin reminds us there are big street closures this weekend for Ride the Drive, and newsletter editor Ava Wojnowski helps us say goodbye to some local restaurants.
