The seventh instalment of Toronto's core service review is being released Wednesday as the city tries to find ways to trim a multimillion-dollar budget shortfall.
Potential cost-saving measures will be outlined in a report to city hall's planning and growth management committee.
The committee oversees things such as arts funding.
Meanwhile, a report that outlines potential TTC cuts is expected to be released Thursday.
According to a Globe and Mail report, the independent review will suggest scrapping night buses and privatizing routes as possible ways to save money.
Earlier reports proposed the scaling back of grass cutting and snow removal operations, cutting farm attractions and shedding daycare spaces. None of the cost-cutting measures has been implemented.
Mayor Rob Ford ordered the core service review earlier this year to identify ways to trim costs as the city wrestles with a $774-million budget shortfall.
Snippets of the review are being released in phases in a series of standing committee reports at city hall.
In another cost-cutting move, the city is offering voluntary buyouts to 17,000 employees.
Unionized employees are being offered three weeks' pay for every year of service, while managers are being offered four weeks' pay for every year of employment.
