The Mayor of Pittsburgh spoke to the City’s improved relations with the oversight board (ICA) and reacted to the State Supreme Court’s decision on casino host fee money. The transcript of a radio interview on the topics is available here.
As we pointed out late last year, the appointment of board members by the officials responsible for appointing them would go a long way to improve relations. One of the disputes between the ICA and the City was the interception of the host fee money, a source of revenue that, as of now, is non-existent.
