e Ms. Wooten moved, seconded by Mr. Holmer, to schedule a work session for May 22 to reconsider Sections 3.005 and Sections 3.336 to and including Section 3.342 of the business license ordinance which apply to sidewalk vending. Roll call vote; the motion carried, 5:2. Ms. Wooten, Mr. Holmer, Mr. Rutan, Ms. Bascom, and Ms. Schue voted aye. Mr. Hansen and Ms. Ehrman voted nay. Later in the meeting, Ms. Bascom thanked the staff for the intensive work on the ordinance. e Mr. Hansen thought some direction should be given to the staff if councilors wanted specific information for the study session. At the end of the meeting, several councilors made suggestions. Ms. Wooten suggested the council consider: 1) policies used in cities not on the West Coast; 2) a formal request for input from the floral industry if it is necessary; 3) the effect of a grandfather clause; and 4) how the mall pushcart regulations might apply to 13th and Kincaid. Mr. Obie suggested the council consider removing the parking or closing the street. If the street is closed, he suggested locating the pushcarts on the street and charging rent for the space. Ms. Ehrman noted there are not enough parking spaces in the area now. She said removal of the parking in the 13th and Kincaid area will have an impact on Sacred Heart Hospital. Mr. Holmer wished the council had discussed the more options before the public hearing. He suggested allowing the highest bidder to locate at a site be considered. Ms. Bascom suggested the pushcart owners who have been at 13th and Kincaid be permitted to remain, but others not be permitted to locate there. Ms. Schue would like additional information from the University of Oregon particularly about 13th Avenue. B. Street Vacation (City of Eugene/Hallstrom) (SV 85-1) (memo, map distributed) City Manager Micheal Gleason introduced the agenda item. Bill French of the Planning Department said the property owner who requested the street vacation was present. Mayor Obie opened the public hearing. There being no requests to testify, he closed the public hearing.
