All city departments are to share in the layoffs, Moyer said Monday.

But he did not indicate how specific agencies will be affected. According to Moyer, the northwestern Ohio city of 54,000 is faced with the deficit despite budget cuts of more than $300,000. Members of the city's three public employee unions twice have turned down the city's offer to forego either their 4 percent 1981 wage increase or a cost-of-living adjustment in an effort to avert layoffs. Moyer doesn't anticipate rehiring any city workers before 1981's third quarter, he said. aove ecor, $670 4 4-r fl 3h F.
