Settlement hopes and assurances from city and CPS officials
In a letter, officials assure ratepayers the settlement pledges to use proceeds for direct benefits like bill credits cannot be violated for the foreseeable future. They confirm no city or CPS official will join the new La Vaca board or resign to seek such an appointment, and that a downtown La Vaca HQ would boost jobs and the business district. The mayor and agency voices endorse the settlement as fair and preferable to continued litigation.

The Senate would allow those with over 40 days unused leave by August to be paid, a plan opposed by several city officials. Rep. Bird and Sen. Lombarding expect the House to act, and for the Senate to accept the change.
