Is this normal? What are the aldermen saying about this privatization idea? I can see garbage collection, but not this.
I think the names could have been made public; at this stage keeping the bid details confidential is probably fair, but releasing the names serves a public interest.
I'm sure the companies know which among them are answering the city solicitation.
The aldermen will wait and take their cues from the Comptroller; I think they are looking for the silver bullet - - a giant payout that will create a trust fund, with earnings, that will spare them the pain of tax increases or layoffs as a regular annual event.
