30 city employees face layoffs

Carson City is looking at laying off up to 30 employees due to a budget shortfall caused by lower-than-expected sales tax revenues, according to a story by the Nevada Appeal.

Carson Now has learned that Sheriff Kenny Furlong met with his employees and indicated that 10 sworn officers and 16 civilian employees were facing layoffs. The sheriff and fire departments make up almost half of the city's budget.
