Local governments to cut jos up to 500k by 2012

Alchemist

In May and June of 2010 NLC, NACo and USCM conducted a survey of cities
and counties across the country for the purpose of gauging the extent of job
losses. The survey was emailed and faxed to all cities over 25,000 in population
and to all counties over 100,000 in population. The survey results presented
below are based on 270 responses, 214 responses from cities and 56 responses
from counties.
The surveyed local governments report cutting 8.6 percent of total full-time
equivalent (FTE) positions over the previous fiscal year to the next fiscal year
(roughly 2009-2011). If applied to total local government employment nationwide,
an 8.6 percent cut in the workforce would mean that 481,000 local government
workers were, or will be, laid off over the two-year period.6 Projected
cuts for the next fiscal year will likely
increase as many of the nation’s local
governments draft new budgets, deliberate
about how to balance shortfalls
and adopt new budgets.7
