Budget Meeting Held Amid Speculation Of Large Cuts Looming

MIAMI - SEPTEMBER 24: City of Miami police officers are part of an overflow crowd in the lobby of City Hall as they watch Miami Mayor Manny Diaz on a television screen on September 24, 2009 in Miami, Florida. The city politicians are trying to figure out how to cover the cost of the 511.4 million dollar budget and have to find a way to cut 118 million dollar in expenses to balance the budget. The Mayor has proposed department and salary cuts, cutting some services, and the layoffs of some non-union members, and he is demanding the city's three main unions cut some of the salaries or their members.
