The commission held a work session to discuss operational reductions required to implement a proposed millage reduction. Commissioners presented individual proposals for budget cuts across various city departments, including the Mayor's Office, Finance, Information Technology, and the City Attorney's office. Department heads provided input on the potential impacts of these reductions, specifically concerning staffing levels, operational efficiency, technology security, and legislative advocacy efforts. The board aimed to reach a consensus on a final operational reduction plan to facilitate the development of the tentative budget.
