Denver is laying off 171 city workers as the city makes sweeping layoffs to close its budget deficit.

In addition, 665 open positions will be eliminated and nearly 100 other jobs will be transferred to other funding sources. The layoffs and job closures represent 7.6 percent of the workforce budgeted in the general fund.

We've already covered at least one city employee let go, parks department executive Scott Gilmore, and we're committed to meeting more of the people impacted.
