Matt Saunders kind of misses the point. Why would you assume the city has the optimal number of employees? Why would you assume that there are no inefficiencies at City Hall? Why do we need so many employees on the sunshine list when their positions could be filled with lower wages?
The big questions will be how much will each unit cost to build and how much will it cost each year to maintain? I am betting it will be much higher than in the private sector.
