Interesting turn of phrase by Councilor Palmieri in response to the 50% Pagano Plan. “We voted education over asphalt,” Palmieri says he told Pagano. He also acknowledges that while there may not be class warfare, the concept would benefit Councilor Smith’s district more than Palmieri’s or Haller’s.
Let’s remember something here: The idea is still in its infancy, and needs to pass the law department before any real action is taken.

Haller also raises a neighborhood war scenario, saying that she is concerned about privatization, and what happens when individual neighborhoods decide they want to pay for more police protection, or better parks, etc. “There’s a lot of issues around this suggestion…I think it’s worthy of consideration.”
