Danbury officials are crafting a maintenance-only budget.  Mayor Mark Boughton says he is freezing some departments hiring to try to make up for state funding losses.  He says it's been a more challenging year because of the unsettled state budget.  Since the state is likely cutting so much municipal aid, Boughton says the City is working to manage those cuts--but that it could mean the loss of some services.  He notes that there is some time before the municipal budget has to be finalized, so there's a lot of uncertainty remaining.  Boughton wants to be able to get to something that will pay the bills, while providing services the City needs to provide.
