M I NUT E S EUGENE CITY COUNCIL August 9,1976 - Regular meeting of the Common Council of the city of Eugene, Oregon was called to order by His Honor Mayor Lester E. Anderson at 7:30 p.m. on August 9, 1976 in the Council Chamber with the following Council members present: Eric Haws, Wickes Beal, Tom Williams, Neil Murray, D. W. Hamel, and Edna Shirey. Council members absent were Gus Keller and Ray Bradley. I - Public Hearings A. Vacations, Streets and Easements I-A-l 1. Portion of Jessen Street between Ohio and Wisconsin Streets (Cole)(SV 76-1) Recommended by the Planning Commission on May 24, 1976. Jim Saul, planner, explained that Jessen Street at this location was dedicated to half width when the area was still in the county. Since annexation, develop- ment of a major drainage channel 60 feet north of the existing Jessen right-of- way has become necessary. As a result, if the street was ever developed to full width, there would be only a 30-foot strip along its northern margin. Mr. Saul said a public utility easement would be retained, and there would be adequate room along the drainage channel for bike and pedestrian ways. Public hearing was held with no testimony presented. Council Bill No. 1208 - Vacating portion of Jessen Street between Ohio Street and Wisconsin Street was read by council bill number and title only, there being no council member present requesting that it be -- read in full. Mr. Haws moved second by Mr. Hamel that the bill be read the second time by council bill number only, with unanimous consent of the Council, and that enactment be considered at this time. Motion carried unanimously and the bill was read the second time by council bill number only. Mr. Haws moved second by Mr. Hamel that the bill be approved and given final passage. Rollcall vote.
