City of Sheboygan retirees may cause services scramble. Officials say city could save big in 2012 budget. (Sheboygan Press, 10/14/2011)
Excerpt: A flurry of city employee retirements in the next month or two, especially in the Public Works Department, could have city officials scrambling to plow streets or perform other tasks, but the retirements also give the city the possibility of realizing significant savings in next year's budget, officials say.
"We have an opportunity to change a lot of staff and save a lot of money," Public Works Director Bill Bittner told the city Public Works Committee Tuesday night. "There are a ton of opportunities in the new law to save money and actually improve service."
