The SNP administration on Glasgow City Council has pledged to "lobby" the UK and Scottish Governments to help plug a £119 million blackhole.
Scotland's largest local authority faces a financial crisis caused by soaring inflation, the on-going costs of the city's equal pay settlement and real-term cuts in funding from Holyrood.
Councillors were this week warned they face making savings that are "considerably higher" than first anticipated - with a funding shortfall of almost £120 million.
