<br />
<br />A RESOLUTION CALLING A CITY ELECTION ON NOVEMBER 5,2002,
<br />FOR THE PURPOSE OF REFERRING TO THE LEGAL ELECTORS OF
<br />THE CITY OF EUGENE "HOUSEKEEPING" AMENDMENTS TO THE
<br />EUGENE CHARTER OF 1976.
<br />
<br />The City Council of the City of Eugene finds as follows:
<br />
<br />A. On August 7, 2000, the Eugene City Council created a nine-member Citizen Charter
<br />Review Committee (the Committee) to review specific sections of the Eugene Charter of 1976, and
<br />various "housekeeping" matters related to the Charter. The Committee was appointed by the City
<br />Council on December 11,2000.
<br />
<br />B. The Committee met throughout 2001, and on January 14, 2002, presented its final
<br />recommendations to the City Council. The Committee suggested that "housekeeping" amendments
<br />to the Eugene and Charter of 1976 be placed on the ballot as a single measure and the other, more
<br />substantial amendments be presented to the voters as separate questions.
<br />
<br />C. It would be in the public interest to submit to the legal electors of the City a measure
<br />amending Sections 1,7,8,9,11,13,15, 16(l)(c), (d), (e) and (2)(a), 17, 18,20,23,25,26,29,31,
<br />33, 34, 35, 37, 40, 42, 43, 45, 48, 49, 50, 52, 53 and 54, and deleting Section 51 of the Eugene
<br />Charter of 1976 and adding a new section thereto, all as described in Exhibit A attached hereto.
<br />
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the above findings,
<br />
<br />BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a
<br />Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows:
<br />
<br />Section 1. A city election is called for the purpose of submitting to the qualified electors

<br />37, 40, 42, 43, 45, 48, 49, 50, 52, 53 and 54 and deletion of Section 51 of the Eugene Charter of
<br />1976.
<br />
