Portland Faces $100 Million Budget Gap

(Portland, OR) -- Portland's Mayor and new City Council will face tough budget decisions. They were told Friday 100 million dollars needs to be cut to balance the budget. Mayor Keith Wilson says they inherited an unprecedented and painful budget crisis. Cuts could come from parks, transportation, and police and fire services. 120 positions are currently vacant. Less revenue from downtown buildings combined with higher costs for the expanded council, labor negotiations, and the homeless crisis are among the reasons for the budget gap.
