Tram Citizen Advisory Committee

In Roland's article above, why does "Citizen Advisory Committee" not provide a link to more information? If no such group exists, isn't it a bit misleading to show this as a community partner? Speaking of community partners, the City promised certain neighborhood improvements as mitigation for the tram's negative impacts. Lair Hill, the neighborhood most tram-pacted, has consistently told the City (and Sam) that our top priority among these neighborhood improvements is the long-promised downsizing of Naito Parkway and reconfiguration of Ross Island Bridge ramps currently dissecting our neighborhood. This project, the South Portland Circulation Study, was adopted by City Council in 2001, is in the City's Transportation System Plan, and was supposed to receive part of the federal money which now appears entirely committed for the SoWa pedestrian bridge. We have repeatedly asked to meet with Sam and staff to discuss this project and don't receive even a reply, much less a meeting. This is community partnership?
