Wilkes did not say when or who would be let go. Due to the need to cut approximately $250,000 from the Civil City Budget, it is believed two police officers from the Linton Police Department and one firefighter from the Linton Fire Department will be laid off.
The Civil City Budget encompasses the Linton Police Department, Linton Fire Department, Mayor’s Budget, cemeteries and parks.
