Tony Locricchio has claimed in documents and interviews that his business plan was damaged because DWP delayed by six months a final $150,000 loan payment on the completion of 100 scooters. DWP officials deny there was any delay, saying the payment was made as soon as the completed scooters were accounted for. Deputy City Attorney Dirk Broersma said the DWP was not swayed by Locricchio's explanation for suspending payments. ``His allegations have absolutely no merit,'' Broersma said. If the department does not receive the full repayment by Friday it will take the matter to arbitration and possibly to court, Broersma said. DWP General Manager Ron Deaton, who as the city's former chief legislative analyst opposed the loan, said that up to the point the $150,000 was paid, `'there wasn't demonstration'' that all the scooters were finished. In a closed session June 21, DWP commissioners took no action - thereby effectively denying - a request by Locricchio to delay interest payments a year and delay a balloon principal payment by two years, to March 2008. PET, which started making interest payments April 9, had made a total of $22,312 in payments. ``They cost us millions,'' Locricchio said in an interview after appealing to board commissioners during a public comment period.
