The City Council was warned Thursday that a serious revenue and expense problem confronting the city budget could force cuts in services.

"In between these two administrations, I thought it was important for someone to come forward and tell you what you are really facing," Chief Administrative Officer Sam Roop said.

"If we don't either reduce services or find a new revenue source, (balancing a budget) is impossible," he said.
