Commissioners: <br />My name is Gordon Howard and I am a property owner on River Avenue. On <br />February 9, 2005 City of Eugene Management re-presented a case for the River Avenue <br />Road Project #369~'. Property owners like myself were not made aware of that meeting <br />until after the fact. Just a reminder, 32 of 33 private property owners on River Avenue <br />opposed this project for a wide variety of reasons and ultimately signed remonstrance <br />forms. On August 4, 2004 after heating public testimony, the BOC voted unanimously <br />4-0 to deny the citys request for authority to form an LID for River Avenue. On <br />September 13, 2004 the City Council took similar action and opposed the staff <br />recommendation of an island annexation on River Avenue to force the project forward. <br />City managers deliberately with-held the fact that the City Council had already voted 8-0 <br />against the River Avenue Project from the BOC at the February 9, 2005 meeting. <br /> <br />I would like to encourage the BOC to revoke the Board Order authorizing the formation <br />of an LID which was signed on February 9, 2005, and send the City of Eugene a clear <br />message. Tell the City of Eugene that in order to be good working parmers, that Lane <br />County needs to be able to trust City Managers to provide full and accurate information <br />and not enter into half truths and deceptions as was done at the February 9, 2005 <br />presentation. Additional detail is provided in my written submittal provided to the BOC <br />on March 8, 2005. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, I would be happy to try to answer them at this time, if not I <br />will close by again urging the BOC to revoke the Board Order authorizing the City to <br />form an LID for the River Avenue project. Thank you. <br /> <br /> River Avenue Exhibit C <br /> <br /> <br />
