Pursuant to the authority contained in Sections 2.019 and 3.340 of the Eugene <br />Code, 1971, on December 22, 1993 I adopted Administrative Order No.,573-9'3-37 proposing <br />the repeal of the Sidewalk Vending Administrative Rule adopted by Administrative Order <br />No. 53-85-08, Emergency Rule Amending Sidewalk Vending Rule adopted by Administrative <br />Order No. 53-93-13, and the adoption of the Proposed Public Vending Administrative Rule <br />R-3.336, to regulate vending on public property within the City other than within the <br />downtown Mall and Park Blocks areas. <br /> <br />B. Notice of the proposed repeal of the existing Sidewalk Vending regulations <br />and adoption of the Proposed Public Vending Administrative Rule R-3.336 was published <br />in the Register Guard for five consecutive days, to-wit, on December 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29, <br />1993. The Notice was also made available to current licensees and other persons who had <br />requested notice, and provided that written comments would be received thereon for a <br />period of 15 days from the first date of publication. <br /> <br />C. <br />findings: <br /> <br />The following written comments were received, to which I make the following <br /> <br />Comment 1: The rule should specifically exempt the downtown mall and <br />Parks Blocks to avoid confusion over which regulations apply to those areas. <br /> <br />Findin~: Language has been added to Finding A above to clearly state that <br />this Rule is not applicable within the Downtown Mall or Parks Blocks. Consistent <br />with direction received from the Council, staff is still working on the development of <br />a combined regulations for commerce on sidewalks, the Parks Blocks, Downtown <br />Mall, and sidewalk cafes. The combined rule would still recognize distinctions among <br />these different areas of private commerce on public property. <br /> <br />Comment 2: A "buffer zone" should be created around the downtown mall <br />in which only locally produced, hand-crafted merchandise could be sold. <br /> <br />Findine: In order to preserve the integrity of these conditions which are <br /> <br />Public Vending <br />Administrative Rule R-3.336 - 1 <br />
