Burien braces for 'dire' budget cuts and the impact on vital services

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A drop in tax revenue and a rise in the number of people who need help are hitting the small King County community of Burien hard right now.

This week, City Manager Brian Wilson warned council leaders they will need to make budget cuts over the next few months.

The city manager says they're about 12% over budget and need to cut more than $3 million. Finding the money will not be easy when funds are already stretched thin.

“This is something I would classify as dire for the city,” Wilson told councilmembers during the meeting.
