The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: A. Section 2.020 of the Eugene, Code, 1971, authorizes the City Manager to determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for services, goods, use of municipal property, and licenses and permits. In addition, Section 2.608 of the Eugene Code, 1971, specifically authorizes the City Manager to set all rates and fees for any ambulance service operated by the City. B. In accordance with the procedures set forth above, on June 12, 2015, I issued Administrative Order No. 52-15-05 proposing the amendment of the Ambulance, Emergency and. Non -Emergency Medical Services Rates Schedule which had been established by Administrative Order No. 52-15-01-F, by adding a First Responder fee as set out in the Notice attached as Exhibit A to Administrative Order No. 52-15-05. C. The Notice was provided to the Mayor and City Councilors, was made available to those who had requested such notice, and was made available at the public hearing which was held on July 7, 2015, from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in Classroom 3 at the City's Emergency Services Center, 1705 W. 2nd Avenue, Eugene, Oregon,- 97402. In addition, on June 22, 2015, Notice was posted at two locations at City Hall, and published in the Register -Guard Newspaper. D. Notice provided that written comments would be received for a period of 15 days from the date of publication and posting, and that comments could be made personally or in writing at the July 7 public hearing. There were no comments submitted at the public hearing or within the time or in the manner provided in the Notice. E. Based on the above findings and the findings in Administrative Order No. 52-15- 05, I find that the fees set forth in Exhibit A attached to this Order are necessary in order to more accurately reflect cost recovery related to the services .provided and are based on the City's increased salary, benefit and support, costs for the employees performing the services. In determining the fees, I have taken into consideration the applicable policies, enactments and directives of the City Council, the amount charged by the city in the past, the full costs of providing the services supported by the fee, the amounts charged by other comparable providers, and the revenue needs of the city as determined by the adopted city budget.
