Baltimore fire unions try to rally neighbors against fire company cuts, warn of increased

Baltimore's firefighter unions have organized two community rallies this week in an effort to stop cuts to fire companies serving Pigtown and Northeast Baltimore.

The community rallies, scheduled for Wednesday, are being held in response to the proposed reduction of two fire companies by Mayor Bernard C. "Jack" Young in his fiscal year 2021 budget. The cut would not reduce the number of city firefighters, but would instead shift staff from the two shuttered companies to other vacancies within the department.

No 'Back to Normal' and Annual Budgets | Accountants Daily

Cloud-based Financial Management caters for the impact of COVID-19 with Budget and Cashflow integrated to 'What-If' for exploring alternative forward-looking scenarios.

* * *

We agree with the comments by McKinsey Australia's top strategy experts in the article, 'McKinsey's blunt warning for business' (Australian Financial Review, June 16 2020).

They see COVID-19 exacerbating the already visible gap between top business performers and laggards in different industries. It's all about pursuing new business models that are right for the times. It's not about the annual planning and budget cycles of 'business as normal'.

DEARBORN — The COVID-19 pandemic has hit state and municipal budgets hard. Businesses came to a screeching halt at the height of cases in Michigan, but with the state slowly transitioning into more relaxed phases, city governments are cautiously looking forward to a summer of economic activity.

The Arab American News spoke to three government officials from Dearborn about how their departments have coped with the pandemic.

“The city has experienced nearly $2 million of unexpected expenditures directly related to COVID-19," said Dearborn Finance Director Ginger Burke-Miller. "The administration is hopeful that a portion of these costs will be covered through FEMA grants and other federal or state assistance."
