<br />Parking Assessme~ District - Councilman Hawk, chairman of the Mayor's Parking Study Committee, stated
<br />that members of the Committee had met briefly before the Council meeting and decided to recommend that
<br />the Council delay proceeding with the parking assessment district because of the number and type of

<br />Mayor Cone called for discussion, and favorable comments were heard from Mrs. Martha Goodrich and
<br />from Messrs. Lewis Hoffman, Duane Lafferty, Al Jagger, and a Mr. Amacher. Mr. Amacher stated that'he
<br />had recently moved to Eugene from Portland, and he reviewed the effect that Lloyd's Center had on the
<br />downtown core area in Portland. Mr. Wayne Shields, a partner in the Valley Shopping Center, stated
<br />that the proposed shopping center would have unmetered spaces for 4000 cars. The City Manager'read a
<br />letter from the Eugene Medical Center, which was not a remonstrance. It alleged some inequities in
<br />the proposed assessment district and suggested further consideration be given to credits for parking
<br />lots now in existence.
<br />
<br />Speaking against the parking assessment district were Messrs. Archie Weinstein, Arthur Anderson,
<br />L. M. Orchard, John Foreman, Walt Walling, Bryan Bronson, E. H. Hall, and Pastor Stewart of the
<br />Lighthouse Temple. Several speakers suggested consideration of the use of parking meter revenues
<br />for the purchase and maintenance of off-street parking facilities. Also, several speakers stated
<br />there should be a difference in the per-square-foot assessment on fringe areas of the proposed dis-
<br />trict and the high-value properties.in the center.
