Budget issues

Every business, agency or company is run by a specific budget that is tailored to its own

business or organization needs. A budget forms the heart of any business or company such that

without it, not operations can be performed. It provides a framework of the amount of money to

be provided in a fiscal year and how and when the money will be disbursed (Mikesell, 2018).

Developing an efficient and effective budget requires time, determination, wisdom and

understanding. For a business or agency to succeed in its operations, they should have a budget

and follow it. Consequently, there are some problems that an agency can face as far as budget is

concerned. For instance, not allocating or apportioning adequate resources to a program can be a

major problem (Igbara, Tordee, Nwadike, & Abuba, 2016). The current society is fully

dependent of money making activities. Agencies such as police department’s budget may get

into situations where their budget does not coincide or meet the complements by the budget and

some budgets may be done.Budget may sometimes need to be increased to meet the agency and

workforce demands. The paper will discuss two police agencies facing budget cuts and budget

rise to meet their demands.

Summary of the article

The selected article is titled “Mayor Tom Barrett: Milwaukee could lose 84 police

officers due to budget shortfall” by Mary Spicuzza. According to the article, the City of

Milwaukee could lose about 84 police office as a result of budget cuts. The city mayor, Tom

Barrett was concerned by how the budget of the police agency was bigger than the tax levy of the

whole city in 2016. The mayor reiterated that the City of Milwaukee would cut the positions of

84 police officers in the following year’s budget (Spicuzza, 2017). The city would also have to

cut 75 positions of firefighters, 10 code inspector positions and 6 public health officers and about

two library to cut on the city expenditure. The mayor was very specific that his intention was not

to have fewer police officer in the city but to solve the budget gap problem (Spicuzza, 2017). He

was open to any solution that would solve the problem rather than terminating the 84 police

officers, Fire Department employees and others.
