Monthly Reports, Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority - The Air Pollution Authority has offered monthly reports to Council, since a feeling has been ex- pressed that there has been some lack of communication. If desired, an oral report could be given Council once a nonth or on a quarterly basis. i I' Mrs. Beal, chairman of the Regional Authority, said the request for closer liaison had originated with some of the smaller outlying communities. She did not feel that Eugene felt any lack. Mrs. Campbell asked whether Co unci lmen who sat on various commi ttees were expected to report. Manager explained that it was his understanding that, unless there were reports of special interest to the Council, this was not expected. Mr. Williams said he would have no objection to occasional oral reports from the Regional Authori ty, but he fel t that a great deal of Council time could be taken with such reports if they were on a regular basis. Mayor Anderson suggested that Council try a report at a commi ttee-of-the-whole meeting, and if it proves of benefit it could be continued. Mrs. Beal informed Council of a Department of Environmental Quality hearing to be held at the request of Lane Air Pollution Authority on January 7, 1972 at 8:00 p;m. at Harris Hall. 1/5/72 Affirm I ~ J. Report on Possibility of Incandescent Lighting in Mall Periphery - Councilman Williams asked the Manager to schedule at next Wednesday's comrndttee-of-the-whole meeting a time to apprise Council what nrlght be the opportunities to use in- candescent lighting for the area surrounding the mall. Mr. Williams did not neces- sarily wish to reconsider Council action on December 27, but if the information 12/29/71 was available, the Council nrlght discuss reconsideration. File K. Eugene Voters for Peace - Councilmen received a request from the Eugene Voters for Peace to reaffirm the vote of the people asking for a total end to involve- ment in Southeast Asia by December 31, and asking release of our men.he1d prisoners. Councilwoman Beal asked if Council wished to take action on the letter. Mayor Anderson said he had not personally reviewed the letter, but that the Council had expressed itself on this particular issue, and had expressed opinions on the issue from time to time. He felt individual expressions had much nore meaning and were more successful than persistent resolutions by the City Council asking something the Council had already stated repeatedly. Mrs. Bea1 said that if this was Council sentiment, she would personally urge members of Congress and the President to cease this slaughter, and she hoped others who 12/29/71 felt strongly about this issue would do the same. File ! i -- L. Resignation, Mary Carder - City Manager announced that Mary Carder, who has been secretary to the City Manager for thre~ years will be leaving shortly, and that she will be replaced by Donna Thatcher, who is conrlng out of retirement to fill the position she formerly held. 12/29/71 File M. Audience Request for Discussion of Eugene Voters for Peace (Item K) - Mr. Ray Ressler said he was Jim Weaver's assistant, and that the letter received by Councilmen was representati ve of members of the commi ttee of the Eugene Voters for Peace. He asked Council to reconsider its action and draft a resolution to the President and Congress of the U.S. reaffirnrlng the action of last May. No action was taken. 12/29/71 File N. Hearing on World Order and Peace - Councilwoman Campbell asked when the Council had committed itself to the hearing on world Order and Peace, and said she had received a communication concerning this matter from the Mayor's office. Mayor Anderson clarified that a subconuni ttee of the International Co-operation Committee had appeared before the Council some time ago and received Council en- dorsement of the proposal from the World Wi thout War Council, to lnvi te members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to sit in on a public hearing. Mr. Williams was a little disturbed about the use of City stationery and postage, and fel t the Council should investigate a li ttle further what it was endorsing. Manager explained that the Committee for International Co-operation is a .Mayor's committee and has been given financial support of this kind. There is a lump sum from which committees draw for such needs. 1/5/72 File ! -. I I 4 1/10/72 - 4
