Message: [QUOTE="Timonen, post: 1055150, member: 81"] i don't see people saying what a great deal it is for the county, just that it isn't so distinct from how business or politics are typically done. avoiding fervent public debate (from emotional, but mostly not-too-interested parties) is advantageous to getting a deal done. they achieved that. i'll judge it all down the line but much prefer the efficient way they got it done to the nonsense that happens when something like this gets played in the media and every other interest group gets their hand into the pot. whatever would have happened under that scenario, i highly doubt it would have netted out as cheaper on the public.
