DEL.ICIO.USA Grady deal is on…..
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Fulton-DeKalb Hospital Authority is to be meeting at this hour, and here’s what we’re told will come out of it:
An 11-member committee will be assigned the task of planning the transition of Grady Memorial Hospital to an institution ruled by a non-profit management corporation. They’ll give themselves a 60-day deadline.
Fulton County will assign two members, DeKalb County will appoint another two. The business community gets two. And the Grady community gets a pair as well. House Speaker Glenn Richardson, Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle, and Gov. Sonny Perdue name one representative each.
The involvement of the three state officials is important — not just the fact that they’ll have a seat at the table, but that the speaker, the governor and the lieutenant governor all have separate seats.
Perhaps it’s recognition that House Speaker Glenn Richardson was the first in the state Capitol to go public on the issue. We’re also informed by reliable people that he doesn’t always agree with the governor, or the lieutenant governor, but this is just a rumor.
