Lake Forest Park City Hall to be closed Friday, July 13th for Furlough Day


Due to budget constraints, Lake Forest Park City Hall will be closed on Friday, July 13, 2012 for a scheduled furlough day. The police department, public works department and the municipal court will remain open for service on Friday.

In 2010, City Council adopted a budget for 2011-2012 which included five furlough days per year and a 2% pay reduction for the City's managerial, professional and exempt employees. The City's maintenance workers represented by Teamsters Local 117 also agreed to a 2% pay reduction and five furlough days per year for 2011-2012. The remaining furlough days for 2012 are scheduled on July 13, August 31, and December 24.

  1. This type of thing is now a common occurrence. It seems to me the City of Shoreline should consider doing something similar to tighten their budget.
