<br />e <br /> <br />Mr. Gleason referred to the council's past decision to have some matters handled <br />by a Hearings Official and noted that a survey done by the Citizen Involvement <br />Committee of participants in City planning processes had found that citizens are <br />highly satisifed with the Hearings Official process. Mr. Gleason felt that this <br />was because the Hearings Official is highly trained in his work and consistently <br />follows specific criteria and policies in making his decisions. Mr. Gleason <br />recognized that items in the guidelines represented a break in tradition for the <br />City but felt that regular appellate review by the council was not a satisfactory <br />process. He did not feel that streamlining processes automatically meant <br />eliminating public access to the council. <br /> <br />Councilor Schue noted that all councilors had expressed frustration with the <br />Council Hearing Panel process. She felt that the suggested guidelines were <br />good since they reserved for the council review of major policies and cnsideration <br />of major policy matters. Councilor Ball agreed that there was a need to streamline <br />processes. <br /> <br />Ms. Schue moved, seconded by Mr. Obie, to approve the seven <br />process guidelines and the process for public review of the land <br />use application revisions. <br /> <br />Councilor Obie urged that public access to the council not be eliminated. <br />He suggested that when staff returns with proposed amendments, two alternatives <br />be presented for consideration by the council, providing varying degrees of <br />access to the council. <br /> <br />Roll call vote; motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />V. CITylS FY82 JOB TRAINING PROGRAMS REPORT (memo, entire report, supplementary <br />materials distributed) <br /> <br />Mr. Gleason introduced Doug Booth, Director, Eugene Job Training Program. <br />Mr. Booth reported to the council on the program's activities for the federal <br />fiscal year ending September 30, 1982, and on the relation of program activities <br />to the Cityls economic development efforts. He said an aim of the Job Training <br />Program was to assure a supply of appropriately trained people to fill jobs <br />created through the City's efforts. Mr. Booth distributed materials and used <br />visual aids to compare figures on Eugene's program with those of other job <br />training programs in the Northwest Region. He said that the entered employment <br />rate for Eugene programs was 79 percent, compared with an Oregon average of 57 <br />percent. He attributed the success to the Eugene programls work with the <br />private sector to determine job training needs. Mr. Booth said that the average <br />cost per placement for the Eugene program was $1,854, which was the lowest in <br />the region. He said that over 500 people had been placed this year through <br />Eugene's program, and that a total of 900 had been placed since the beginning of <br />the program in Eugene. <br /> <br />Mr. Booth said that in addition to providing a supply of trained employees, the <br />program was also working to create employment demand through aiding in business <br />recruitment and expansion efforts. He said that $40,000 in uncommitted program <br />funds would probably be used to promote Eugene as a center for training conferences. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council <br /> <br />January 12, 1983 <br /> <br />Page 9 <br />
