"We said the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna look inward first. Meaning we are going to figure out how we can make city government run efficiently, run more effectively without going to the taxpayers and reflexively saying pay us more. That was critically important for everything that we did," Lightfoot said.Johnson and the new City Council will be sworn in on May 15.
