The 28 critical recommendations in the report certainly do not clear the mayor and highlight the lack of transparency but sadly that is not how he is selling it to his supporters. This was a great opportunity for him to eat some humble pie and admit to mistakes but he is in danger of missing that opportunity.
On TV interviews tonight he did admit to what I think we all knew, that his reputation had caused businesses that did not want to be associated with the questionable TVCA to go elsewhere or postpone making commitments and this may well also explain the lack of progress at the airport. Hope he takes wise council.
