re: Tram Audit Findings Support Adams' Actions
Which Tram is Roland referring to when he said "The Tram came before Council on August 14, 2002"? The same one that Sam hadn't worked on 366 days later?
Sam officially resigned as Vera's Chief of Staff on August 15, 2003.
Two days earlier, on August 13, 2003 the below Agenda Items came before City Council:
*953-1 Adopt findings to approve an alternative contracting process and create an exemption to the competitive bidding of ORS Chapter 279 for the Marquam Hill Aerial Tram Project General Construction and Tramway Equipment Procurement (Ordinance 177795)
*958 Authorize agreement with Portland Aerial Transportation, Inc. for design, project management and expert tram advisory services for the Marquam Hill Aerial Tram (Ordinance 177797).
