<br /> I
<br /> i
<br /> I A report of the City Ivlana ger r'e: Ar~zon Park Program was submitted and
<br /> I
<br /> I read.
<br /> 1 "At a recent meeting of the Council, some discussion was given to the
<br /> , future utilization of monies ",~erived from the sale of Ci ty owned property at 13th
<br /> ! and Chambers toward the purchase of park site acreage in the Amazon area in con-
<br /> junction with the program of the Century of Progress Fund and Business and Pro-
<br /> fessional women of Eugene.
<br /> I
<br /> ,
<br /> ,:. In view of the fact that the sale of the Medical Center property is
<br /> I: beJ.ng conswnmated, I have been asked to ascertain if possible the attitude of
<br /> I: the Ci ty Council toward the application of these funds for the Amazon Park program.
<br /> Ii The Century of Progress Fund at the present time has suffic ient monies on hand to
<br /> i' secure an option on these properties but is holding up such action pending word
<br /> (frOm the Council.
<br /> ~ While this money could not be expended until such time as a specific
<br /> ~ budget appropriation were to be madei the Council could take two steps at this
<br /> t time as a means of assuring the Century of Progress Fund of City participation.
<br /> I! One - such step would be to direct the proper City officers to set up a special
<br /> ~ Ii ore serve for park purchase and development and to recommend to the Budget Committee
<br /> I II for the 1947-1948 fiscal year that a certain sum of money held in this reserve be
<br /> I: appropriated for this purpose.
<br /> "
<br /> ,1
<br /> II At the request of the Century Funds directors, I am submitting this
<br /> ~matter to' you for such action as you deem proper."
<br /> !!It was moved by Crwnbaker, seconded by Hawn that the report of the Manager be re-
<br /> ,i:i: ceived and placed on file, and the matter be tabled until meeting of October 14,
<br /> 1"

<br /> !: A report of the City Manager re: Sewage disposal plant was submitted
<br /> i~
<br /> il and read.

<br /> II, "At various intervals during the past few months, this office has con-,
<br /> 2: ferred with the owners and developers of a so-called Sunny Hollow sub-division
<br /> [lying to the Southeast of the City beyond Hilyard Street with reference to the
<br /> ~sewering of 600 homes planned for this district.
<br /> II ' .
<br /> ill We have been pleased to learn that the proposed constructJ.on of a sewage
<br /> II disposal plant on the Amazon Creek has been temporarily abandoned in favor of a
<br /> ! 15" sanitary sewer that will eventually be serviced by the City t S Amazon trunk
<br /> '. !linterceptor when this trunk is completed to 29th Avenue South. It is our belief
<br /> :1 that the conditions resulting from discharge of the sewer plant effluent from a
<br /> . Ii treatment plant on the Amazon, particularly during the summer months would prove
<br /> . jl a never ending problem both to the plant owner and to the City of Eugene.
<br /> 1,1
<br /> I
<br /> !t I, therefore, strongly recommend to the Council tha t the necessary
<br /> Ijauthorizati?n.be given to provide for the con~truction of,a proposed sewe~ line
<br /> I making provJ.sJ.on for a temporary pump connectJ.on to the CJ.ty system, pendJ.ng the
<br /> I: completion of the Amazon trunk.
<br /> !i Such line to be constructed in accordance wi th City Standard specifi-
<br /> 'i cations and all costs for the same to be borne by the project developers and
<br /> I liproper sewer con~ection charg~s to be made.to all u~e~s of the ~ine. The agree-
<br /> !',ment would also J.nclude the rJ.ght of the CJ.ty to utJ.IJ.ze approxJ.lliately 5 blocks
<br /> 11 of the 15" . trunk sewer from point of connection wi thin the City to the City
<br /> ~limits on Hilyard Street.
<br /> ~ .
<br /> I: This recommendation is made upon the basis of findings of the engineers
<br /> I: representing city and the home dev~lopm~nt .project. Lookin€? to, the further growth I
<br /> !:and expansion of the area in questJ.on, J.t J.S the only.practJ.~a~ approac~ ~o the
<br /> I: solution of the sewerage problem in the area where sOJ.l condJ.tJ.ons prohJ.bJ.t the l
<br /> ~installation and use of septic tanks." I
