Ninety-Day Delay?
The Post reports that Councilmember Harry Thomas Jr. (D – Ward 5) will introduce a bill later today to prohibit the CFO from transferring any money to the Housing Authority, which is responsible for the construction of the new park in LeDroit Park, for 90 days.
Mr. Thomas believes the contracting improprieties warrant delaying the projects. The Post writes:
Thomas, chairman of the Committee on Libraries, Parks and Recreation, said the council’s oversight powers supersede concerns about delaying construction of the recreation facilities.
“This is just government at its worst,” he said. “We can’t get caught up in the fact that neighborhoods have been promised things.”
Expect delays.
