MCO’S NEW BUDGET, NO LAYOFFS 06-30-10 05:50 a.v.

A budget was passed last night iin Monterey County that would not only close a 22-million dollar gap, but eliminate the need to layoff workers.  According to a report presented to the County’s Board of Supervisors, all but 5 employees, out of the 43 originally slated to lose their jobs this week, have found new jobs within the county.  The board was able to cut costs by about 3.6%, a year after reportedly cutting 7% of it’s spending.  Layoff notices are expected to be prolonged to another month to afford more time to find jobs for the remaining 5 workers.
