See the WTNH announcement about the trolley to nowhere closing down. This trolley cost about $350,000 per year with little to no ridership. NHCAN suggested this as a place to cut in order to save money and avoid other, more painful cuts. It looks like the city is listening. They also made, or tried to make a number of other suggestions NHCAN made:
proposed elimination of fair rent commission
tweed subsidy cuts two years in a row
shubert subsidy cuts
renegotiations with the unions
Grove Street Parking Subsidy cuts
Citizen input in the budget = Blue Ribbon Commission On The Budget
Jeffrey Kerekes Appointed to the Financial Review And Audit Commission
Small Business Initiative cuts.
