\n Mayor Bill de Blasio has plenty of ways to trim his $87 billion budget proposal without resorting to municipal layoffs, critics said Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is lots of fat in the proposed budget that the council has identified for the mayor,\u201d Finance Committee Chairman Daniel Dromm (D-Queens) said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe refused to work with us on implementing these ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dromm, who accused de Blasio of threatening layoffs as a way of \u201cpushing his own agenda,\u201d said the city could \u201ccut $700 million in NYPD overtime, delay new recruits and through attrition reduce the force by 2,000.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s also some fat in the [Department of Education\u2019s] proposed budget. The mayor should be looking at central administration staff which has increased tremendously over the years,\u201d Dromm said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdditionally, the council has asked the mayor to reduce every agency\u2019s budget by 5 to 7 percent. That should be done before laying off people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maria Doulis of the Citizens Budget Commission said de Blasio should strike deals with the city\u2019s labor unions so workers pay for a share of their health insurance and other benefits, as is standard practice in the private sector.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey haven\u2019t been aggressive enough in cutting the budget and really rising to the fiscal crisis caused by the coronavirus,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a multi-year problem that requires long-term solutions and aggressively getting ahead of the problem.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
