re: Tram Life Cycle Cost Analysis
OHSU's web site states that it is ESTIMATED that the City will pay 15% of the Tram's operating costs and OHSU will pay the rest (i.e. 85%).
However, as I understand it, the actual split will be based on future surveys of riders. If it turns out that 60% of the Tram's riders are NOT OHSU staff, patients, visitors, etc. than the City will pay 60% of the Tram's operating costs.
Is my understanding correct or have there been changes in the way the City and OHSU will split the Tram's operating costs?
