Ms. Ortiz agreed with the remarks of other committee members. She did not support the harvesting of old <br />growth but felt that some timber harvesting could occur to support the economy. She was seeking a balance <br />but reiterated the old growth should be left alone. <br /> <br />Ms. Wilson suggested that rather than adopt a resolution in response to the EIS, it might want to adopt a <br />resolution setting out its position on the harvest of old growth and environmental protections as the issue <br />was unlikely to go away. Ms. Taylor supported that approach as being in line with the council’s policies. <br />Ms. Wilson offered to get the process started with the City Attorney’s Office. The committee concurred. <br />Ms. Taylor suggested that the council consider the resolution on January 14. <br /> <br /> <br />8. Items from Members and Staff <br /> <br />Ms. Wilson invited committee members to contact her with questions and offered to meet with members to <br />assist them in learning how to read Oregon legislation and to provide them with an overview of the <br />legislative process. She also invited suggestions on improvements to the materials provided to the <br />committee. <br /> <br />The committee tentatively agreed to meet January 22 at noon, January 30 at 1:30 p.m., and February 5 at <br />noon. A second February meeting would be scheduled as necessary. Committee members agreed that if <br />they had no objection to the staff recommendations, meetings would be canceled. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 1:05 p.m. <br /> <br />(Recorded by Kimberly Young) <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Council Committee on Intergovernmental Relations January 3, 2008 Page 4 <br />
