any new on the promised decision on the chisca hotel project? i understand that it is under secret negotiations w/ the city council. to me, legally questionable, if money, in part, is public and to be co-mingled w/ private funds. any information on the marriott addition and the hilton in the south district? what about the indigo, i think their past 6 years for having completed their project.

i don't know why anyone would want to tie down a project w/ the promise that 15-25% of it has to be given to minority black or women firms, especially if they do not have the expertise to do the work. some of the announced projects are beyond schedule.
