Today's press about killing the Sauvie Island Bridge proposal


Here are several links to today's press about Sam Adams killing the Sauvie Island Bridge proposal. Most of it seems to suggest that it wasn't just money, mounting political pressure was another reason for killing the project. Anyone following this story knows it was a controversial proposal. However, for Sho Dozono to take credit for changing Adams' mind seems to be a stretch at best.
