Busy days at City Hall. With the political fight well underway over the future of the waterfront’s transportation future, it’s also time to look squarely at the future. On Monday, Mayor Mike McGinn will unveil his 2011 city budget proposal. We reported on the mayor’s planned cutback plans earlier this summer and have included a presentation outlining the planned cuts, below. On Monday, we’ll learn what the end-of-summer politicking and community feedback has gained and lost. Information on Monday’s announcement and the slides outlining proposals from earlier this summer, below.
