Las Vegas City Cuts Worse than Anticipated
By daniel | Dated: 05-07-2010
Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman announced during a press conference this Thursday that the city will experience many more layoffs than initially anticipated.“I understand that (the layoffs) are substantial,” said Goodman. “At least twice (the number) we were talking about.”
The Las Vegas fiscal budget is $120 million short for the next two years, and the city had previously announced 146 expected layoffs. With the new announcement, that number can be expected to approach 300.
At this point no deals with city unions have been reached, although several deals are on the table. Such agreements will need to be approved by the city council before being able to go into effect.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
