e Mr. Hansen moved, seconded by Ms. Ehrman, to approve the recommendation of the Planning Commission to add the following discussion statement to the Funding Section of the TransPlan: It is extremely critical that additional sources of revenue be established to construct and maintain the street and highway system contained in this plan. The existing sources of revenue are inadequate for development and maintenance of the street and highway network. The community and elected officials must recognize this need and develop new local revenues expeditiously. Mr. Holmer opposed the motion because the statement was too strong and too imperative. Roll call vote; the motion carried 5:3 with Mr. Hansen, Ms. Schue, Ms. Wooten, Mr. Rutan, and Mr. Miller voting aye and Mr. Holmer, Ms. Bascom, and Ms. Ehrman voting nay. G. Reordering of Policies in the Funding Section Mr. Hansen moved, seconded by Ms. Ehrman, to approve the recommendation of the Eugene Planning Commission to reorder the policies in the Funding section so that Policy F4 is the first one listed. e Mr. Holmer said he is willing to pursue the alternatives in Policy F4, but he is not willing to adopt a plan which directs their pursuit now. Roll call vote; the result being a tie, Mayor Obie voted. The motion carried 5:4 with Mayor Obie, Ms. Schue, Ms. Wooten, Mr. Rutan, and Mr. Miller voting aye, and Mr. Holmer, Mr. Hansen, Ms. Ehrman, and Ms. Bascom voting nay.
