"A lot of cities made layoffs in June and July," City Councilwoman Jean Quan told The Chronicle on Wednesday. "We should have done it earlier, but now we'll do it in the fall. What these cuts mean for average residents is it's going to take longer to fix streetlights. It'll mean less and slower services a little in every department."
