tion of the Mayor's Committee on Economic Development, and consistent <br /> with State of Oregon guidelines. The application package will return to the <br /> council for approval in advance of the Spring 2005 State of Oregon appli- <br /> cation deadline. <br /> <br /> Mr. Meisner moved to amend the motion by striking the single boundary <br /> expansion in the area bounded south of First Avenue, west of Jefferson <br /> Street, north of the railroad tracks, and east of Van Buren Street. Mr. Pol- <br /> ing and Mr. Pap6 accepted the motion as a friendly amendment. <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor urged the council to consider what would contribute to the social fabric of the community and <br />not increase the need for social services and subsidized housing if help was provided to an industry. She felt <br />that HMT was a good example of problems that occurred with the previous zone because of the low wages <br />paid to employees. She said if the State guidelines could be changed and the proposal had reasonable <br />standards for businesses that received assistance the zone could be considered. <br /> <br /> Ms. Bettman, seconded by Ms. Taylor, moved to amend the staff motion so <br /> it applied to redevelopment, infill, and brownfield sites only. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman explained that her motion would provide a community benefit in terms of leveraging the public <br />subsidy and redevelopment of those sites would help use land more efficiently. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling asked if the motion was consistent with State guidelines. Mr. Klein indicated he would determine <br />if Ms. Bettman's motion was consistent with State guidelines for enterprise zones if it passed. <br /> <br /> Mr. Poling, seconded by Mr. Kelly, moved to table to the October 11, <br /> 2004, work session because of time constraints and need for a response <br /> from Mr. Klein. <br /> <br />Mr. Meisner requested that staff provide a sense of what the proposed zone boundary would look like on the <br />ground at the next work session. <br /> <br /> The motion to table to a time certain passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 1:30 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />Dennis M.
