ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-16-13 <br />-of the <br />City Manager <br />REISSUANCE OF TEMPORARY RULE REGARDING OVERNIGHT <br />SLEEPING ("DUSK TO DAWN") PROGRAM REGULATIONS ADOPTED <br />BY ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-16-06. <br />The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds that: <br />A. Section 2.019 of the Eugene Code, 1971 (EC) authorizes the City Manager to adopt <br />rules for administration of provisions of the Eugene Code. EC 2.019(5) authorizes the City <br />Manager to adopt temporary rules for a period of 180 days. <br />B. On November 23, 2015, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20559 which <br />established a temporary permitted overnight sleeping ("Dusk to Dawn") pilot program allowing <br />persons to sleep overnight between specified hours at approved City locations until March 31, <br />2016. <br />C. On December 16, 2015, I issued Administrative Order No. 53-15-18 establishing <br />temporary regulations to implement the Dusk to Dawn pilot program until March 31, 2016. <br />D. On March 14, 2016, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 20563 which <br />amended the pilot program's provisions to allow the City Manager to, among other things, consider <br />the seasonal sunset in determining the hours of permitted overnight sleeping at designated sites, <br />and extended the program's sunset date to March 31, 2017. <br />E. Since the issuance of Administrative Order No. 53-15-18, due to Council's <br />amendment of the Dusk to Dawn pilot program and extension of the program's sunset date, I <br />reissued the temporary Rule regarding the Dusk to Dawn program regulations by Administrative <br />Order No. 53-16-06. That Administrative Order will expire on October 5, 2016. <br />F. Council discussions that will be taking place in the upcoming months concerning <br />the Dusk to Dawn program may result in the need to amend the regulations. While Dusk to Dawn <br />program options are being considered, it would be most efficient to reissue the temporary Rule <br />adopted by Administrative Order No. 53-16-06, so that the regulations will remain in effect for the <br />duration of the Dusk to Dawn program adopted by City Council. <br />NOW THEREFORE, based on the above findings, and pursuant to EC 2.019(5), the <br />following standards shall become effective on October 5, 2016, and remain in effect until March <br />31, 2017, unless replaced earlier by an emergency rule, temporary rule, or permanent rule adopted <br />in accordance with the provisions of EC 2.019. <br />Administrative Order - Page 1 of 3 <br />
