Tonight, the City of North Las Vegas announced they had to lay off up to 93 people because of a $35 million shortfall.
The kicker in the article is this, from the Sun: Public Works also would shed employees, including 30 Teamsters. Eight other positions iwould be left vacant, saving the city about $4.2 million. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/oct/20/north-las-vegas-announces-proposal-cut-251-jobs/
This comes up to almost $111,000 a job. $111,000 for a public works job? Yeah, that's why the City of North Las Vegas is broke.
