I mean, there are definitely things that could be cut. One that really annoyed me this year was we had a super warm fall so the snow clearing budget didn't all get spent. Someone from the city gave an interview saying this is great, we can spend the extra funds on extra street sweeping and other stuff.
Edited to add:according to the City's manager of mobility maintenance they were at their cap for contributing funds to reserves for future years.
