Hearings Planned on Budget Woes
The Redondo Beach City Council, which earlier this month was notified that the city will face an average $2-million deficit in future years unless it scales back spending, will hold public hearings June 11 on the 1991-92 city budget.
The hearings will be the first public discussion of the city’s budget woes since May 8, when City Manager William Kirchhoff told the council that if Redondo Beach “were in the private sector (the city’s situation) would be known as being on the brink of bankruptcy.”
Kirchhoff has recommended that the city act now to cut overhead, scale back personnel costs and eliminate services that are “nice to have but not necessary.”
