CALL TO ORDER <br /> <br />Mayor James D. Torrey called the meeting of the Eugene City Council to order. <br /> <br /> II. ACTION ITEMS <br /> <br /> A. Approval of City Council Meeting Schedule July to December 1998 <br /> <br /> Mr. Farr moved, seconded by Mr. Tollenaar, to approve the meeting <br /> schedule. <br /> <br />Ms. Swanson Gribskov proposed that the council consider having a conversation soon about its <br />expectations of the interim city manager and what the council's work plan would focus on in the <br />next eight months. She said that could lead to changes in the meeting schedule. Mr. Torrey <br />responded that staff had developed a proposal for the discussion Ms. Swanson Gribskov desired. <br /> <br />Mr. Lee suggested that the council delete November 25, the day before Thanksgiving, from the <br />schedule. Mr. Farr asked that the date be retained as an option given the council's limited days <br />for meeting, adding that individual councilors planning to travel could always ask to be excused. <br />Mr. Meisner concurred, saying he preferred to calendar the meeting now and cancel it later. <br /> <br /> Roll call; the motion passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br />Mr. Torrey adjourned the meeting of the Eugene City Council and convened the meeting of the <br />Urban Renewal Agency. <br /> <br /> B. Tentative Urban Renewal Decision <br /> <br />Cathy Briner, Planning and Development Department, provided the staff presentation. She <br />reviewed the options previously discussed by the council for the Downtown Urban Renewal <br />District and Riverfront Research Park District. <br /> <br />The council members summarized their impressions of the public testimony submitted in writing <br />and orally at the public hearing on April 13. <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council April 15, 1998 Page 1 <br /> 11:30 a.m. <br /> <br /> <br />
