JS Online: Brookfield condos lose fight with city over street upkeep: "Brookfield - A federal judge has ruled in favor of the City of Brookfield, dismissing a lawsuit by four condominium associations that challenged the city's requirement that the complexes be built on private roads maintained at the cost of the associations...The groups alleged it was discriminatory for the city to take over and maintain streets in single-family residential developments while refusing to do the same for multifamily developments. But Adelman ruled that the city had a legitimate interest in reducing public works costs. Shifting part of that burden onto condominium associations “with the means to provide their own services” is not unconstitutional, Adelman said."

Mandatory privatization is the point. That's why cities favor CIDs. More property tax payers without the expense.
