What should be done about it? It should be killed and laid to rest immediately.

Bad enough it's obvious the design firm for the project was chosen so that the selection committee could get to travel to Switzerland, I believe it was? instead of hiring an Oregon firm to do it and maybe, you know, keeping money local and creating some jobs in our Still In Recession economy, but to waste $45 million on a project that benefits OHSU because they don't have enough parking (which is the reality of it...) and developers like Homer is simply just Bad Government.

Well, I needn't say more, Michael K's comment about poker and throwing good money after bad sums it up. If OHSU wants a tram, let them go to a bank, get a loan, and build it themselves. We said no, via ballot measure, to the Oregon Convention Center expansion to be paid with our tax dollars, and golly gee, look what just happned to get built anyway (and is already underutilized.)

The city should drop it, and OHSU will figure out some other parking solution or will build it without public funds. Where's a good ballot measure when we need one? Cheers, Rob
