ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-16-12 of the City Manager REISSUANCE OF TEMPORARY RULE REGARDING OVERNIGHT SLEEPING ("REST STOP") PROGRAM REGULATIONS ADOPTED BY ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-16-05. The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds that: A. Section 2.019 of the Eugene Code, 1971 (EC) authorizes the City Manager to adopt rules for administration of provisions of the Eugene Code. EC 2.019(5) authorizes the City Manager to adopt temporary rules for a period of 180 days. B. On September 25, 2013, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20517 which established a temporary permitted overnight sleeping ("Rest Stop") pilot program allowing up to 15 persons to sleep overnight at approved City locations until March 31, 2014. C. On November 26, 2013, I issued Administrative Order No. 53-13-13 establishing temporary regulations to implement the Rest Stop pilot program until March 31, 2014. D. Since the adoption of Ordinance No. 20517, the City Council has adopted Ordinance No. 20547 which amended the pilot program's provisions to allow for the possibility of up to 20 persons to sleep overnight at a specified site. Council has also extended the sunset date of the Rest Stop pilot program, most recently by Ordinance No. 20563 which extended the program until March 31, 2017. E. Since the issuance of Administrative Order No. 53-13-13, due to Council's amendment of the Rest Stop program and extension of the program's sunset dates, I have reissued the temporary Rule regarding the Rest Stop program regulations, most recently by Administrative Order No. 53-16-05. That Administrative Order will expire on October 5, 2016. F. Council discussions that will be taking place in the upcoming months concerning the Rest Stop program may result in the need to amend the Rest Stop regulations. While Rest Stop options are being considered, it would be most efficient to reissue the temporary Rule adopted by Administrative Order No. 53-16-05, so that the regulations will remain in effect for the duration of the Rest Stop program adopted by City Council. NOW THEREFORE, based on the above findings, and pursuant to EC 2.019(5), the following standards shall become effective on October 5, 2016, and remain in effect until March 31, 2017, unless replaced earlier by an emergency rule, temporary rule, or permanent rule adopted in accordance with the provisions of EC 2.019.
