More Good News For Cuyahoga County
From the PD
At least Cuyahoga County’s persistently dreadful economy hasn’t reached the depths of a depression.
But the economy has lagged longer than usual, the county’s budget director said, causing several years of declining government revenues.
To compensate, the county is cutting costs next year — for the fourth time in seven years — and will institute a hiring and wage freeze beginning Jan. 1, said Sandy Turk, director of the county’s Office of Budget and Management.
