I think they need to cut "in house" costs. They could start with turning off the computers, lights and other non-essential equipment at city hall overnight.

That's a good suggestion. Let's see the private sector follow suit for environmental purposes as well.
Council is piddling down to the nitty-gritty of the budget, and it's slowing going to happen through blood, sweat and tears. Every department has to justify their budget demands, and Council decides what gets axed - and things are getting axed. For example, we have subscriptions to a number of different news sources, and we have decided to save almost half a million dollars by cancelling a number of those subscriptions.
Just because you don't see it on the front page news doesn't mean cost-cutting isn't in full swing.
