Despite the January layoffs of almost 1,500 city employees in an effort to stem the tide, it presently appears that the City of Detroit faces a June 30, 1975, deficit of $25-$32 million. Revenues will be some $25-$42 million less than original budget estimates and the cost-cutting measures taken to date will reduce expenditures by about $10 million below the amounts appropriated. While the current state of the economy has exacerbated the city’s fiscal problem, the city budget for 1974-75 was not balanced with solid revenues when it was adopted in the spring of 1974.
