Orlando cuts part-time Amway Center workers as jobs are privatized
Edited on Wed Nov-09-11 10:40 PM by The Backlash Cometh
About 70 part-time Amway Center employees working for the city of Orlando have been informed that their jobs have been cut and the work turned over to private firms, the city said Wednesday.

Although the NBA lockout drags on, officials say the cuts were the result of a review comparing operations at the new home of the Orlando Magic with its predecessor, the Amway Arena.

City spokeswoman Heather Fagan said in a statement Wednesday that staffing the new arena is "very different" from the old one, and the review bore that out.

"It was determined one of the changes, should be the shifting of part-time, in-house security staff to the outside security firm of Andy Frain," Fagan said.

Does anybody know where this company is incorporated? I couldn't find it on the Corporation website.

On edit: found it under Andy Frain. Thought that was the name of one of the directors.

2. I noticed it was from Illinois.
Do you have a link that connects it to Koch?
