Mayor hopefuls agree on development agency -- I'd move to liquidate all the authorities

Pittsburgh has too many authorities with too many powers and too many assets. That amounts to too little accountability.

I'd MOVE to LIQUIDATE the various authorities. I'd turn in that direction. This take apart is going to take years to occur. Don't just sell all the properties in one blink -- as the market would get a knock and all the other property values would nose dive. That's bad. A steady sell off makes sense.

Then, if the next leaders want to re-build the authorities -- they could have that option.
