The City Council will hold its fifth and sixth budget meetings this week, with the intention of adopting more than $1 million in cuts to this year's general fund budget.

The council decided on a reduction package last week, and Tuesday night at 7 p.m. the public will have a chance to comment on the proposals. Following public comment, the council may make changes to the package. The proposals would then go in front of the council for approval at its regular business meeting Wednesday night.

Below is the list of potential reductions.
