agreement have the option of terminating their participation in the agreement, by providing one year's <br />advance notice of termination to the other governing bodies. If the County Board of Commissioners <br />was willing to withdraw from the MWMC, the change could be handled as an amendment to the existing <br />IGA and potentially could happen fairly quickly. If the County were not a willing partner in such a <br />change, the dissolution of MWMC and subsequent reformation of an agreement for management of the <br />regional wastewater program could take one year or longer. It is uncertain what the budget/fiscal status <br />of the regional wastewater program would be during the process of reformulating the agreement. <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br />Following the public hearing on this item, the council has the option to: <br />1.

Direct staff to modify the proposed changes to the IGA and return with a modified proposal for City <br /> Council approval; or <br />3. Take no action on the proposed changes to the IGA. <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION <br />The City Manager recommends adoption of the proposed changes to the regional wastewater IGA and <br />approval of issuance of the revenue bonds by MWMC. <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION <br />None; this is a work session only. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />Please refer to the attachments that are included with the Agenda Item Summary for the May 9, 2005, <br />Public Hearing on this item. <br /> <br />FOR MORE INFORMATION <br />Staff Contact: Peter Ruffler <br />Telephone: 682-8606 <br />Staff E-Mail: peter.j.ruffler~ci.eugene.or.us <br /> <br /> L:\CMO\2005 Council Agendas\M050509\S050509C.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
