Cllr Nigel Ayre, inset, and West Offices, City of York Council headquarters JOBS may be at risk at City of York Council - as the cash-strapped local authority looks to balance its books in tough financial circumstances. Budget papers propose more than £1.4 million in savings linked to staffing reductions, reviews and efficiencies in the next two years. No further information has been released but Cllr Danny Myers asked senior councillors if they are aware of the scale of the expected job losses that they could be agreeing to if the budget is approved. Speaking at a meeting of the executive, he said: I m trying to understand if you have been made aware of that detail, which I think is incredibly important.
