Cincinnati City Manager Milton Dohoney, Jr. is recommending closing a $34 million general fund deficit with a series of cuts and a large chunk of one-time money from letting a private company manage the city's parking facilities.

He sent his plan Monday to Mayor Mark Mallory, who'll review it and forward it to City Council.
