Division’s attention, but the division could not or would not take action. He thought the City should help preserve <br />property owners’ rights instead of forcing the owners to take legal action. <br /> <br />Diane Searle, <br />Jeppesen Avenue, Eugene said she was from the River Rock Glen Association and explained <br />provisions that would be in place to assure affordable housing issues were addressed in the event property was sold. <br />She said the City would have a lien against properties assisted with affordable housing funds and if a property was <br />sold it would either remain affordable housing or the funds would be repaid. <br /> <br />Paul More <br />, 2586 Potter Street, Eugene, discussed the need for bicycle lanes on the uphill side of streets in the Crest <br />Drive/Storey Boulevard area. He said he would be submitting two petitions requesting the bike lanes. He said that <br />environmental issues made the use of bicycles important. He said it was unsafe to require bicycles and motor <br />vehicles to use the same lane and the roads should be wide enough to accommodate bicycle lanes. He cited the width <br />of streets and bicycle lanes in various locations throughout the City. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy closed the public forum and invited comments from the council. <br /> <br />Councilor Clark congratulated residents of Hannah Dell Estates on their work to make the River Rock Glen project <br />successful. <br /> <br /> <br />2.
