It is according to this article in the Southern:
With the prospect of privatizing city water and sewer services behind them, council members and Mayor Brad Cole must now decide how to best fill a budget deficit the city projects could be $5.8 million in the next two fiscal years. The city's overall budget this past year was about $42 million.
If it's in the Southern, it must be so. I don't see anyone actually cited in the article as saying the prospect is finito though and the folks who showed up at last night's film showing are certainly still concerned.
The southern said it but every member of the city council was quoted the day before saying it's "dead in the water."

Yep you're correct, and I'd heard similar statements the week before.
