Salt Lake City laying off another 40 people

Citing a still anemic economy and a need to find efficiencies, Salt Lake City is laying off approximately 40 more people, primarily at Salt Lake City International Airport. The job cuts, which will be complete by next week, represent roughly 2 percent of the city’s work force. The move comes after 75 positions were eliminated July 1 as part of Mayor Ralph Becker’s fiscal 2011 budget. The Salt Lake Tribune
