DETROIT, MI -- Mayor Dave Bing plans to present his 2013-14 budget to City Council at 10 a.m. Friday.

Bing said in a news release that the new budget includes a $4 million reduction in City's Council's budget, with plans to downsize each member's staff to one employee.

The budget also calls for hiring 40 fire department EMS workers.

About a third of the city's general fund budget will go toward paying employee and retiree benefits, according to the release.
