After initially questioning the need, Mayor Richard Daley has decided to discuss the controversy over Chicago's Olympic bid contract with aldermen in a public forum, his spokeswoman said today.No doubt in response to a recent story about the mayor now guaranteeing Chicago's financial stake in the 2016 Olympics should we be successful in winning our bid for the games!
“The mayor understands the City Council is a critical partner in this endeavor,” Daley spokeswoman Jacquelyn Heard said. “They’ve raised concerns. They have questions. So we will put the matter before council again.”
Whether the session is informational or involves another vote “would be a determination that the City Council members would have to make.”
