Report: Kolluri to head school construction; Dilts will become DOT Commissioner

There is speculation today that state Transportation Commission Kris Kolluri will become the new head of the embattled New Jersey Schools Development Authority (formerly the embattled New Jersey School Construction Corporation), and that Gov. Jon Corzine will name Stephen Dilts, now the Deputy Comissioner of Transportation, to replace Kolluri. Kolluri, viewed as one of Jon Corzine's favorite cabinet members -- and a possible candidate for Lt. Governor next year -- replaces Scott Weiner, who decided to retire after being asked to leave.
