This is a terrible precedent for a representative government facing bankruptcy.
The police will do the bidding of the creditors, not the people.

Ah, yes; returning to the days of yesteryear when the railroad men and cattle ranchers employed their own “private security personnel” to “police the open range.” Frees-up the town Sheriffs and the Marshals for more important, pressing, “larger things,” while the more menial labors of keeping those sodbusters and sheepfolk in their rightful places, doncha know.
“And then he spit in the dust, looked up, and muttered, ‘I reckon I'm a’workin’ for whoever it is that owns the bunkhouse where I sleep and fills me and Old Paint's belly.’ “

" . . . while the private sector security guards take care of the more menial labors . . . ."

From the article:
“No traffic violations such as moving violations such as moving violations. Small things illegally parked, blocking the parking,” said Ald. Anthony Beale (9th).”
From the article:
“That wasn’t exactly what Mayor Daley thought when he was asked about it on Saturday. He said the security force would have the power to enforce “moving violations and citations including loitering, littering and graffiti.”
