"""Il e 7Ll, 11/1/71 I ,I for public use of the river bank. EWEB has an easement which parallel's the river bank, and it is proposed that this area be reserved for public use or joint use, and that the rezoning be conditioned upon that use being made available. Mr. Van Fossen has indicated willingness of his client to cooperate in this request. City Manager said it was his understanding the County had made a similar recommendation to the Commissioners regarding Planned Unit Development and public use of the river bank area. Dave Van Fossen said he was the agent for the owner of the property, and that, since the Council had read the Planning Commission minutes, he would not repeat his comments made at that meeting. e Mr. Howard Bonnett, Planning Commission member, said the discussion at the Planning Commission meeting had been very lengthy, and there had been some confusion about Planned Unit Development conditions, but that these had been cleared up. The public strip along the river bank, if properly developed and screened, would provide a connection between larger parks along the waterway. I In answer to Mrs. Beal, City Manager said it was his understanding the City and County Commissioners have agreed that the development plan must be approved and accepted by both bodies before the zoning will be completed. Mr. Van Fossen read the motion of the County which said in part, "It is recommended that city approval be observed by the Lane County authorities." There was discussion about the requir.ements of the PUD and the ordinance for rezoning. Mr. Van Fossen said they were willing to sign the document, but had not received a request for dedication as yet from the State.

Neal, 2965 Charnelton, said he had appeared before the Planning Commission and presented a petition signed by persons living in the neighbor- hood who were opposed to the zone change.
