One point that you did not pick up in Anglin's comments was that no public process to date has been observed with regard to the 415 W. Washington RFP. There was a presentation by proposers that was open to the public, but with no ability to ask questions or make comments. Anglin was responding to the many comments by such as Derezinski, Rapundalo, and Smith, who implied that a committee would naturally have public meetings and hearings. They sought to make the requirement for a public process seem redundant, but Anglin correctly identified a complete lack of public process in the 415 W. Washington (presumably parallel) process to date. Thanks again for a comprehensive and thoughtful coverage of the discussion.
