Aldermen 'still in dark' on budget fixes

Clout St.:

Aldermen who attended a closed-door briefing at City Hall this morning said mayoral aides gave them no new information about how the Daley administration plans to attack a $420 million budget deficit.

"It was all doom and gloom," said Ald. Walter Burnett (27th). "There was nothing about what we can do. We’re still in the dark."

Burnett said he has learned more about the city's financial state from the media than from what Daley administration officials have told him.

It was said in this post that there was more discussion about the lease of Midway Airport.
