Redding eyeing more cuts to vacant city jobs to shore up budget

Redding leaders are weighing which of dozens of vacant city jobs they'll cut, if any, including six top positions and eight public safety positions. Each of the vacant jobs under scrutiny is partly or completely supported by the general fund, Interim City Manager Michael Webb said in a report about job vacancies to the Redding City Council on Nov. 3. The number of vacancies changes often as workers retire or resign, Webb said, but on Oct. 26 — the date his office compiled the report — Redding had 38 openings. The council opted on Nov. 3 to hold off on cutting vacant jobs until they hear fiscal updates in December — and after three newly elected or reelected councilpersons are seated. If the council then decides to freeze those jobs, those and other cuts made to vacant positions in October could save the city as much as $2.66 million in fiscal year 2027, said Webb. But just because a job is vacant doesn’t mean that position isn’t necessary, he said. Some of those jobs have “mission critical roles. They could be public safety.

California has one ballot counting trouble spot. Its the one run by an election denier

Fingers are being pointed at Shasta County's clerk - registrar of voters for the slow and mismanaged ballot counting in the rural county. photo credit: US Bureau of Reclamation/Wikimedia Shasta Lake in Shasta County, CA. Photographed on 11 March, 2019. In the end, it wasn't shady bogeymen stuffing ballot boxes or federal agents who caused disruptions on election night in the rural Northern California Republican stronghold of Shasta County. It was the seeming incompetence of Clint Curtis, the county's election-denying elections chief who's soon to be unemployed. Journalists, including CalMatters' reporting partner Shasta Scout, have reported numerous problems with the vote count in Shasta County, a 2.5-hour drive north of Sacramento. They reported overflowing ballot boxes, staffing shortages, workers putting ballots in the wrong bins, computer hiccups and voters arriving at their polling places to find signs saying the location had been moved. Most counties dropped initial results right after 8 p.m. [when the polls closed on election night], but Shasta didn't report any until around 10 p.m. since elections officials hadn't set up their computer system properly, leaving it as the only county in the state that on Wednesday morning hadn't finished counting ballots from those who voted in

Shasta Scout and CalMatters are suing Shasta County after the county denied their public records requests for a copy of a federal grand jury subpoena ordering Registrar of Voters Clint Curtis to bring more than 55,000 ballots from the June primary to Sacramento.
