WORK SESSION: URBAN SERVICE TRANSITION ROADS CONCEPT PAPER Mayor Obie said a councilor had asked to have the work session postponed. City Manager Micheal Gleason responded that Ms. Schue and Mr. Rutan will have to represent the council on the Urban Services Policies Committee (USPC) before another work session can be scheduled. Ms. Schue said she will represent the City at a press conference concerning the urban transition soon. She said she needs to know the opinions of other councilors. Terry Smith of the Public Works Department briefly reviewed the concept paper. He said it was tentatively approved by the USPC. He said the paper indicates a theoretical framework for the transition of road services. When the US PC finally approves the transition, an implementation document will be presented to the council for approval. He said the concept paper is based on policies in the Metro Plan and the urban services resolution which state that the cities will provide urban services and that a rational method of providing urban e services within the urban growth boundary will be developed. Mr. Smith discussed the multi-jurisdictional servi ce deli very system that exists now in the cities. He sa i d the concept paper seeks to reduce duplication in the delivery of urban services by reduci ng the number of jurisdictions providing urban services. He said the staff discussed refining the status quo, a Multnomah County model, a regional road network, and a combination model. The staff recommended approval of the combination model to the USPC. He said a multi-jurisdictional policy body probably would be created if the combination model is approved. Answering questions from Mr. Hansen, Mr. Smith said River Road is now a Lane County road. If the combination model is approved, Lane County will maintain River Road at a rural level and the City will supplement the maintenance to bring the street up to an urban level after River Road is annexed to the city. It would also be true of Goodpasture Island Road if it is included in the regional road network. Goodpasture Island Road is designed to a rural standard now. Referri ng to page 13 of the concept paper, Mr. Holmer asked about the statement that the amount for Eugene's anticipated revenues cannot be sustained beyond FY87 without additional revenue sources. Mr. Smith responded that the statement indicates the loss of Federal Revenue Sharing Funds. He said the final agreement will probably shift some reponsibility to Lane County e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 13, 1986 Page 6
