<br />'f:)/7 <br /> <br />RESOLUTION NO. <br /> <br />A RESOLUTION APPROVING MODIFICATION TO <br />INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT ON METROPOLITAN <br />WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT COMMISSION. <br /> <br />The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that: <br /> <br />A. The Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission ("MWMC") was established <br /> <br />pursuant to an Intergovernmental Agreement ("Agreement") entered into between the Cities of <br /> <br />Springfield and Eugene and Lane County, Oregon on February 9, 1977. The Agreement was <br /> <br />subsequently amended on January 4, 1978, February 16, 1982, and July 19, 1991. <br /> <br />B. The Metropolitan Policy Committee ("MPC") has recommended that paragraphs 3.f., <br /> <br />8.c., and 15.c. of the Agreement be amended to clarify the extent to which MWMC can mandate <br /> <br />sewer user charges and connection fees; that paragraph 12 be amended to extend appeal rights to any <br /> <br />rate payer, as defined therein; and that a new paragraph 17 be added to the Agreement to provide a <br /> <br />dispute resolution process. <br /> <br />C. It would be in the public interest, consistent with the intent of the parties, and ensure <br /> <br />compliance with applicable Federal regulations to authorize the City Manager to execute the <br /> <br />amended Agreement on behalf of the City of Eugene. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, <br /> <br />BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a <br /> <br />Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows: <br /> <br />Section 1. Based on the above findings, which are hereby adopted, the proposed <br /> <br />amendments to the MWMC Intergovernmental Agreement are hereby approved, and the City <br /> <br />Resolution - 1 <br />
