Mayor Knapik: City Council's Cuts to Budget Will Mean $700K Cut to Schools

Mayor Daniel Knapik was interviewed on WSHM TV-3 just a short while ago and said that the budget cuts proposed by the City Council will mean a $700K to the school's budget and layoffs. A public school committee meeting will be held tonight at South Middle School's auditorium at 7pm to discuss the cuts. Residents are encouraged to attend. Commenting on the cuts, Mayor Knapik said, "I understand what they are trying to do but they kind of went about it in a reckless fashion."

The budget will be addressed at Wednesday's City Council meeting on Wednesday in the auditorium of South Middle School as well.
