Mayor Sherman Guyton praised the city's finance director and others for preparing a budget for this year and he found it hard to come up with a word to describe the financial challenges the year has brought.

The Cares Act, which Congress passed earlier this year, gave the Pentagon money to "prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus." But a few weeks later, the Defense Department began reshaping how it would award the money in a way that represented a major departure from Congress's intent.
