Marlins garage back within budget

So it turns out the Miami City Commission really did manage to keep the Florida Marlins parking garage price tag within their budget, as today they approved $92 million in bonds to fund the project, after initial estimates had been as high as $135 million. The trick? They "renegotiated the cost" with the construction firm, according to the Miami Herald. Makes you wonder what else cities could get cheaper if they stopped just paying whatever bill they were handed.
