re:

Here is my price of a postcard, more than two cents worth on the issue: When the City Council said yes to the McTram, it demonstrated it’s arrogance to the public in that city government only uses the term “neighborhood support” (referring to the neighborhoods over which the McTram passes) when it is convenient to do so. A simple less costly solution would be a tunnel from the South Macadam district to an elevator under OHSU, lay tracks and run an extension of the trolley through the tunnel. The bottom line is the cost of this McTram is totally out of control, nearly three times the projected dollar menu costs. I doubt postcard sales will make up the difference, nor should taxpayers be burdened with the additional costs. If OHSU wants prime rib, they alone must pay for prime rib. If the City wants a postcard, there are plenty of other subjects already in place.
