steps to a healthy yard. Find out more about two upcoming events in May – Bark in the Park on May 16 and Public Works <br />Day on May 21. <br /> <br />The focus of the Clean Water Connections is educating and informing community members about stormwater pollution and <br />ways to protect the local waterways. Articles typically address seasonal or current issues and include one page of interest <br />for younger residents. <br /> <br />Copies of the newsletter are now available electronically at www.eugene-or.gov/happyrivers. Eugene residents can also <br />expect to receive the newsletter in the mail next week. Those interested in receiving the short monthly e-newsletter, <br />Raindrop to River, can subscribe in the Stay Connected section of the City’s website. For more information, contact Public <br />Information Specialist Kathy Eva, Stormwater Management Program, at 541-682-2739 or Kathy.a.eva@ci.eugene.or.us. <br /> <br />City Launches Online Building Plan Review and Permitting <br />The City of Eugene is launching eBuild, a new online plan review and permitting program that allows customers to submit <br />their plans electronically to be reviewed and approved online. The new online system will save customers time and money <br />with fewer trips to the Permit and Information Center, reduced printing <br />costs, and increased efficiency. <br /> <br />eBuild is an internet-based plan review system developed by the City of <br />Eugene that allows customers to: <br /> <br />Submit building permit applications and construction documents <br /> <br />electronically; <br /> <br />View plan review and inspection results online in real time; <br /> <br /> <br />Pay permit fees online; and <br /> <br /> <br />Schedule inspections for projects once they are ready. <br /> <br /> <br />Two open house events to introduce people to eBuild, answer questions <br />and provide tips on using the program, will be held this month. The open <br />house sessions will be on Apr. 30 in the Sloat Conference Room of the Atrium Building at 99 West 10th Avenue. The first <br />session will be from 11:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m., and another will be held from 5:00 – 6:30 p.m. The sessions are free and open <br />to anyone who wants to learn more about eBuild. Local architects, contractors, engineers, and designers are encouraged to <br />attend. <br /> <br />The use of online technology aligns with Eugene’s on-going efforts to support local businesses by providing easy, <br />streamlined access to City services. Providing quicker and easier access to building services also promotes the safety, <br />livability, and economic vitality of the community. Learn more at www.eugene-or.gov/eBuild. <br /> <br />City of Eugene Park Ambassador Program Launched <br />The Parks and Open Space Division is launching a park ambassador pilot program focused on creating a welcoming user <br />experience in Eugene’s most visited park area: the over 700-acre riverfront park system which features 12 miles of paved <br />path, four miles of running trails, the RiverPlay destination <br />playground, the Cuthbert Amphitheater and much more. Situated <br />next to the system is the new WJ Skatepark + Urban Plaza, which is <br />drawing all ages and offers a variety of outdoor sports. <br /> <br />Park ambassadors will help enrich the experience of park users by <br />providing information around park amenities, recreational <br />activities, history, rentals, rules, hours and more. In addition, they <br />will help park staff identify and mitigate hazardous conditions and <br />provide social service information to park patrons as needed. The <br />two ambassadors will work together Wednesday through Sunday <br />from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. They will cover the riverfront corridor from <br />Maurie Jacobs Park to the I-5 bridge, as well as the WJ Skatepark. <br /> <br />The pilot program will run Jun. 1 through Sept. 8, and <br />complements the three-year-old park watch program in the goal of creating a welcoming and safe park environment for <br />park users. For more information, please contact Parks and Open Space Marketing and Outreach Manager Kelly Darnell at <br />kelly.a.darnell@ci.eugene.or.us or 541-682-4901. <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 2 <br />April 24, 2015 <br />
