re: Tram Town Hall Materials
Sam and Roland - while obviously the tram is a mess at this point and, as everyone acknowledges would have never been done if the costs would have been know, I appreciate the cost-benefit and research you have done into every option including stopping the tram. As Roland points out at the point finishing the tram is the right thing to do financially, and the right thing to do to ensure the growth in the South Waterfront that has already started. At this point stopping the tram would clearly be a horrible decision that, while maybe politically positive, would be stupid from a financial perspective.
