focused on a proposed bonus plan that prosecutors said could have paid out millions to executives had the city-owned utility been sold.
Zahn’s sentencing was set for June 18, but prosecutors asked for the delay last week, citing complicated legal issues that surrounded the trial, and would also affect the sentencing, according to their motion.
