plan. He said they then took the plan to the City, but had been told to wait through the PROS process to be <br />put into the “pipeline.” Initially, the plan had been made a Priority 1, and then moved to a Priority 2, but <br />now with the shifting of acquisition before development, it had dropped to Priority 3. Meanwhile, the <br />group worked with the Eugene Stream Team to complete plantings along the north bank for the past three <br />years. He stated that the BLM was moving toward planning the area for stream enhancement. He thought <br />the process might take as long as five years. He asked the City to reprioritize the project to “capture the <br />synergy” of the BLM and act before the neighborhood advocates had “all become senile.” <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy closed the public hearing. She called for council questions and comments. <br /> <br />Councilor Pryor, seconded by Councilor Solomon, moved to keep the record open for <br />seven days. Roll call vote; the motion passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br />Councilor Pryor thanked everyone for staying for the hearing. He commented that the process needed to be <br />deliberate. He noted that there were some jurisdictional issues to work through, but it was important to <br />continue working on projects. He related that the Lane Board of County Commissioners adopted a <br />resolution asking the City Council to slow down and work more actively with them. He thought the council <br />should take that into consideration. He said his support for the PROS Plan list would be dependent on <br />getting through some of the collaborative aspects of it. <br /> <br />Councilor Kelly thanked everyone for their testimony. He noted that explicit language was added to the <br />PROS plan that pointed out that the City of Eugene did not have jurisdiction outside of city limits. He <br />asked staff for a response regarding the proposed split of the Jefferson Amazon Greenway into two phases. <br />He also wanted a better understanding of testimony regarding the Willakenzie acquisition and the <br />McDougal parcel. <br /> <br />Councilor Kelly asked that explicit language be included at the beginning of the PROS plan explaining the <br />priorities and acknowledging that challenges and opportunities would arise down the line and the council <br />would have the ability to alter priorities and add or delete projects as circumstances warrant. <br /> <br />Councilor Poling asked staff to provide information at a later time regarding whether there were, as one <br />person alleged, no existing deficiencies in land for neighborhood parks. He noted that the project list on the <br />Web site from April 4 contained three new columns, one of which was labeled preliminary growth share <br />and preliminary growth costs. He wanted to know what that meant. He asked which list the council would <br />be expected to adopt. Additionally, he wished to know if systems development charges (SDCs) were being <br />charged outside of the City limits and whether this was legal or permissible. He asked if the City was <br />charging SDCs for land being acquired to complete additional legs of the Ridgeline Trail. <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman averred that the neighborhood park deficiencies were not on a block-by-block basis. <br />She said staff addressed alleged deficiencies on page 228. She did not think that there was much to work <br />out and she favored moving forward. <br /> <br />Councilor Papé expressed appreciation for the comments from the people who spoke in support of a <br />whitewater park. He asked if the City could remove the weir in the Willamette River. Mr. Lidz clarified <br />that the City lacked jurisdiction over the middle of the river. <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman thought it was possible to place an emergency call box at Golden Gardens Park in the <br />interim as a safety measure. <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council April 10, 2006 Page 19 <br /> Regular Meeting <br /> <br />
