Critics of project's price tag question cost of labor agreement Boston Globe
''We're opposed' to the project labor process, said Ron Cogliano, community development manager at the South Shore Chamber of Commerce and staff liaison to the Milton Business Council. ''We are not antiunion by any stretch of the imagination. We're just interested in a fair and equitable bidding process so that our members, union and nonunion, can have a shot. We're coming at it from the perspective that [the agreement] is antitaxpayer and anticompetitive. When you limit competition, you drive up the price.'
Tom Flynn, council representative for Local 67 of the Carpenters Union and a Milton resident, said the high school attracted fewer bidders because few companies can bond for such large projects. But the district had multiple bidders for the renovation and construction projects at the other schools, Flynn said.------------------------------------------- posted 8:25 AM :: reference link ::
