Show Notes
Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson is preparing for potential budget cuts, asking city departments to plan for trimming 5-10% from their budgets. The city has faced yearly shortfalls since 2020, with a projected deficit of $140 million next year. Wilson is considering program reviews and hard choices, as options for funding run low. The citys money problems stem from pandemic programs, rising labor costs, and decreased sales and property taxes.
