Council benefits from cap. That's the point: The TRUST has been broken!

Council benefits from cap - PittsburghLIVE.com Fontana, who chairs council's assessments committee, said it is unfair to think personal interest will sway the vote on Onorato's plan. 'You have to trust that your elected officials are looking after the interests of the taxpayers,' he said.
