Colorado Springs faces a $31M budget gap, prompting proposed cuts including closing a community center, staff reductions, and unpaid furloughs.
Colorado Springs faces a $31 million budget shortfall for 2026, prompting Mayor Yemi Mobolade to propose cuts including closing the Meadows Park Community Center, reducing city staff by 1%, and imposing five unpaid furlough days for employees—excluding public safety.
The city’s $427 million budget is $11 million less than last year, driven by declining revenues and national economic pressures.
Residents and advocates are concerned the measures could harm essential services, while the City Council is reviewing public feedback ahead of a final vote.
The council’s first budget reading is set for November 10.
