Chad all three are hired guns and as far as I'm aware MNow doesn't exist any longer - what was said at an earlier time was that TM was playing into the agenda...
I definitely want a signed deal and the sound of breaking ground. Let's e clear, it's been almost 9 months, so I can be patient for another 9 if that's what...
what is more interesting is what conceivable rationale is there to now allow 'flexibility' in the $500M performance bond that wasn't afforded to both bidders...
Chad you once again refer to the lack of bonding by Cascadia but refuse to state where you got that information - what I'm told is that the $500M bonding was...
... I completely agree. And by correct, the SMP needs to be very clear that neither the structure (J&S vs. non J&S) nor the amount of the performance bonds...
If people care about this issue -- including you, greenlaker -- it would be sure nice to see you turn out at the Board Meeting this week to make a public ...
Chad please either admit that you have no information about the performance bonds or tell us what your source(s)is. As I understand it the price was and is...
Hey Monorailers! Art and I had an e-mail conversation that spawned from the Comments section of the Sound Politics blog. I thought he made some comments and...
There is only one way that the GL line will not go through the Seattle Center and that is if the negociations fail, and nothing is able to be built for this...
If you are concerned about the amount of information the Seattle Monorail Project makes available to the public, and the transparency of Board actions, please ...
... The short version of the reasons why TM did not submit its proposal is contained in the letters that are posted on the TM web site and there is quite a...
There's an old saw that no one is irreplaceable, however in this case it could speak volumes. Apparently word within the civil community is that Jeff Fielder,...
I think you'll find that you will get better response from our elected officials. Write/email the Seattle City Council members directly -- it seems to work. ...
While I have ideas for how lobbying the City Council may help us in the near future, lobbying the City regarding staff oversight and public disclosure at the ...
Fluor's website (www.fluor.com) says that they have 30,000 employees. Haven't checked the other Cascadia members. Can they survive one guy leaving? From Fluor...
He may be hated but he ain't dumb. Why go against a group of voters that just got a huge victory at the polls? He would be even smarter to protect the monorail...
Here's what's most interesting about what Fluor says even about itself: "...Fluor's primary objective is to develop, execute, and maintain projects on...
So, according to the SMP the latest word is that Washington Group will not be replaced and the Cascadia consortium will reorganize from within. Per their own...
I would suggest that all interested go to the RCI and Fluor sites themselves - on the Fluor site check out their transportation projects - my quick read...
... yup here's the link to Fluor's transportation projects. http://www.fluor.com/ias/tra/projects.asp#hsl Lots of highways and airports, and as expected LOTS...
Did Team Monorail ever replace Kiewit and Granite? I went through the Team Monorail website and couldn't find any list of Team Members beyond Bombardier....
My understanding throughout is that a number of civl teams, Granite and Kiewit included, remain very interested and will step in from the sidelines once the...
Let's take a moment to do a reality check and see what's transpired over the last year - First we have Granite/Skanska/Kiewit pulling out last April - Then...
