Adams hits 100th day in office at full gait, looking for his stride
Maria Lynn LimThe Oregonian, May 24, 2005 - The quintessential moment of Sam Adams' first 100 business days in office came during a routine city budget work session. Adams was seeking money for one of his many projects, explaining to his colleagues on the Portland City Council that the initiative was good for small businesses, good for Portland as a whole -- and a promise he'd made during his 2004 campaign. Nancy Hamilton, the mayor's chief of staff, broke in with a question: Would it be possible for Adams to give the mayor and other commissioners a list of all of Adams' campaign promises, so that they know what's coming?...It is, after all, an awfully long list.
