budget proposal and our priorities for the next fiscal year.
These cuts wil! make it difficult to carry out my duties under the Charter, but we will do
the best we can, We have dedicated and committed staff members who are prepared for the
challenge ahead.

our duties. We request that no further cuts be imposed on our proposed budget.
