<br />I <br /> <br />M I NUT E S <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />Eugene City Council <br />Eugene Hilton Hotel, Board Room <br /> <br />January 14, 1985 <br />7 p.m. <br /> <br />COUNCILORS PRESENT: Freeman Holmer, Cynthia Wooten, Richard Hansen, Ruth <br />Bascom, Debra Ehrman, Roger Rutan, Jeff Miller. <br /> <br />COUNCILORS ABSENT: Emily Schue. <br /> <br />Adjourned meeting of the City Council of the City of Eugene, Oregon was <br />called to order by His Honor Mayor Brian B. Obie. <br /> <br />I. DISCUSSION OF COUNCIL COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS FOR 1985 <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Mayor Obie said Councilor Schue had indicated that she would not be able to <br />attend this evening and she would like to serve on the same committees this <br />year; but, if there is a problem, she will negotiate with other councilors. <br />She serves on the Joint City Council/4J Board Task Force, the Citizen <br />Participation Review Team, the Interim Community Development Committee, the <br />Joint Parks Committee, the Metropolitan Policy Committee (MPC), the <br />Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC), the Utilities Task <br />Force, the L-COG Board of Directors, the Legislative Subcommittee, and the <br />Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority (LRAPA). <br /> <br />Marge Beck distributed a list of current committee assignments. She, Micheal <br />Gleason, John O'Connor, and the councilors discussed the process for making <br />committee assignments. The councilors briefly described their current <br />assignments and the frequency of meetings. <br /> <br />Mayor Obie wished to expand the Council Committee on Economic Development <br />(CCED). He encouraged any interested councilors to indicate they would like <br />to be on it. The Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Partnership will deal with <br />marketing and recruitment, but the CCED will deal with the other five <br />subjects in the council's Six-Point Economic Diversification Program. <br /> <br />Councilor Holmer pointed out a councilor is a liaison member of the Eugene <br />Action Forum. In other organizations, councilors are voting members. He <br />said a potentially awkward situation exists when councilors serve and vote on <br />boards of directors of organizations which receive City funds. <br /> <br />When the Riverfront Park Study is completed and adopted, a task team will <br />probably be formed, Ms. Wooten said. Mr. Rutan has been on the study team as <br />a planning commissioner and would like to serve on the task team. He served <br />on the Joint Parks Committee as a Planning Commissioner and wishes to <br />continue as a councilor. <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council <br /> <br />January 14, 1985 <br /> <br />Page 1 <br />
