Governor Pat Quinn proposes an 11th hour budget tweak that could spare more than 1,900 layoffs and delay closures of state facilities. The plan seeks to shut four developmental centers and two mental health facilities by 2014, with at least 600 residents moved from centers, and names potential sites in Anna, Dwight, Dixon and Centralia.
