The Cub Reporter Never Disappoints

I saw this headline:

City health board OKs ambulance contract

And I just KNEW there would be a gratuitous remark from our celebrity developer.

City Solicitor Christine O'Connor recommended the private session as a best practice for a board in the midst of contract negotiations, and said public discussion could have had a detrimental affect on the city's position.

The Sun publicly registered its objection to the closed-door session based on the belief that the stated purpose for the session did not meet one of 10 purposes of an executive session outlined by the state's Open Meeting Law.

David Daly (Link), the CEO of PrideSTAR EMS, also questioned whether the executive session was proper under the Open Meeting Law and said he was pleased with the board's previous "transparency."

O'Connor said later that a draft contract is not public record and discussing it publicly would then make it a public record, which is not advantageous to the city's position.

Who knows? Maybe, if the Blog of Record is on the auction block (Link), the current, or next, leadership will bother to give the Dutton Street complex a quick sweep.
