He said the new language was reviewed and approved by the Joint Parks Committee at its January meeting. In response to a question, Mr. Drapela stated that some posting of areas where alcohol consumption is allowed has occurred and that more extensive posting will be performed upon the approval of the proposed rules. Mr. Hansen stressed that the rule must be made clear in the various parks. In response to another question, Mr. Drapela said that the section could be interpreted such that the Parks Director or the City Manager could temporarily suspend the rules, but he added that the City has not chosen to do so. City Attorney Tim Sercombe said that a Parks rule would have to be adopted to allow for that suspension. He said that alcohol consumption is allowed only as authorized by a Parks rule under Section 4.190. Ms. Wooten stated that alcohol consumption is not currently allowed on the downtown mall but events may arise when some groups choose to do so, such as in the Eugene Celebration. Mr. Gleason said a rule consistent with OLCC regulations would be promulgated to meet that situation. Mr. Drapela commented that emergency authority exists under Section 2.813 (1) to allow alcohol consumption in specific areas. In response to another question, Mr. Drapela said that University Park is addressed by the proposed language. Mr. Holmer said he will vote to support the ordinance, but he expressed his concern with the lack of definition of "center supervisor" and "special authorization." Mr. Gleason said he will study the administrative regulations to clarify the issue.
