Pittsburgh Tuesday takes - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Pittsburgh Tuesday takes - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Onorato's smart move: We certainly don't agree with everything Dan Onorato does. His fealty to a patently unconstitutional property tax assessment scheme and his drink tax top the list. But the Allegheny County chief executive is right on the money with a plan to seek bids from the private sector to run many of the amenities in nine public parks. It's an idea whose time came a long time ago. We're glad to see Mr. Onorato catching up to the curve."
