- . -- . '\ Chamber, and a ramp at the north entrance to provide access to the Chamber for , people having to use wheelchairs were estimated at $17,000. Addition of $6,700 for fees and contingencies would make the total remodeling work amount to about $30,000. At the Mayor's suggestion; possibility of dropping the dais and sloping the audience floor was explored, and a cost of $8,500 estimated for that arrangement. There was general agreement that the office space could be used by others when not used by Council members and could be justified, as well as the ramp. However~ the expense of reconstructing the Council table and covering the sou~h entrance d~d not meet approval. Councilwoman Bea1 wondered whether a less expens~ve arrangement could be found to alter the Counc41's present seating arrangement. There ~as further discussion with regard to possible change in the present type of m~cro- phones and provision of more microphones for the audience, insta11at~on of a signal system from Council to Mayor and to record votes, and suggest~ons from news media for unifonn lighting and prqvi<sion for connection to the sound ~ystem. Mayor Anderson suggested proceeding with combination office space and meet~ng rooms in the two south corners of the Chamber, and perhaps consideration of the balance of the remodeling at another meeting. Mr. Wood moved seconded by Mr. Williams to authorize staff to pr~ceed on provision of office space as suggested as well as construction of whee1cha~r ramp to the , north entrance to the Chamber.

Road Alignment, Alton Baker Park - Planning COmmission on March 26, 1973 reconunended transmittal of the following statement to the Lane County Commissioners: During the duration of the conditional use permit or until such time as a permanent road alignment, within the don text of the Alton Baker Park Plan, can be brought before the public, it is recommended that the landfill operation be serviced by the relocation of Lay Island Road farther south of its present east/west location, running parallel to the River, curving in a northerly direction prior to passing under I-5, run- ning then parallel to the Freeway until such point as it intersects the existing Day Island Road, then passing under I-5 on the existing roadway, thereby leaving intact the natural, wooded waterfront area to the east of I-5. Council toured the area of the proposed .,[bada1ignment. Paul Beiste1, director of County Parks and Recreation, pointed out the former route proposed and that recom- mended by the Planning Commission. His understanding was that the recommended route would pass under I-5 south of the present Day Island roadway. Mr. Pearson corrected that statement, saying that the Commission felt the proposed road was for temporary access to the landfill area, therefore they recommended its turning north from the riverbank area to pass under I-5 on Day Island Road's present loca- tion. The Commission recognized the need for access to the area but did not favor a through route. , Mr. Beistel explained that the County Commissioners at this time are involved only with making a decision on the Master Plan and land uses of the Park. No action will be taken until all agencies involved have reviewed the plan. In answer to Manager's question with regard to the landfill operation and time element in de- termining road alignment, Mr. Beistel commented that any delay in policy decision ,_~ffects af~tual construction anc!_~r~a.Ees,,~~effi~i_encif!:s in the total planning: ' \ ~\ 4/30/73 - 11
