<br />Mr. Zelenka preferred to clarify and refine the ordinance content prior to submitting it for public comment. <br />He felt that the questions raised during the work session should be answered before a public hearing was <br />scheduled. <br /> <br />Mr. Zelenka, seconded by Ms. Taylor, moved to table until the answers to ques- <br />tions had been provided to the council. The motion failed, 5:2; Mr. Zelenka and <br />Ms. Taylor voting yes. <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor said she would not support the ordinance, but agreed the list should be reduced to those activities <br />that were dangerous to others. She asked if the offense related to consumption of alcohol in unlicensed <br />places could apply to someone attending the First Friday Artwalk. Sgt. Kerns said events like the Artwalk <br />obtained a license, although someone walking along the sidewalk with a glass of wine could theoretically be <br />cited. <br /> <br />Mr. Clark pointed out that the council often forwarded staff recommendations as submitted to a public <br />hearing for the purpose of receiving information about the community’s concerns and recommendations. He <br />was willing to compromise on a shorter list of offenses, but wanted public input on the ordinance as <br />proposed. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling remarked that the list of offenses was based on a history of criminal activity in the area. He said <br />those who wanted to testify at the public hearing could research the definition of offenses online if they were <br />unclear. <br /> <br />The motion passed, 5:2; Mr. Zelenka and Ms. Taylor voting no. <br /> <br />. WORK SESSION: General Obligation Bonds for Street Maintenance Projects <br />C <br /> <br />Sue Cutsogeorge, Central Services, provided an overview of a General Obligation (GO) bond measure. She <br />said staff, at the council’s direction, had developed an $81 million bond measure for placement on the <br />November ballot. She said the preliminary project list included in the agenda packet reflected full <br />expenditure of the bond proceeds. She illustrated on a map the geographic distribution of projects, which <br />included approximately 50 percent reconstruction projects and 50 percent overlay projects. In addition to <br />the projects on the list, she said $350,000 would be set aside annually for preservation of off-street bike and <br />pedestrian paths. She said the next step was to consolidate the data from the pavement management system <br />into project groupings that made the most efficient use of bond funds. <br /> <br />Ms. Cutsogeorge said the council’s interest in accountability and flexibility was addressed through a draft <br />resolution that included hiring an independent auditor to review expenditure of bond proceeds and report to <br />the city manager, the council and the public and establishing a department advisory committee (DAC) to <br />review the project list annually and assist in identifying the projects that would be done each year. She said <br />the DAC would also advise the city manager on any modifications to the list. She said the project list <br />represented staff’s best professional estimate of what could be accomplished with bond proceeds over the <br />next ten years, but it was impossible to predict with any accuracy the pavement condition of particular street <br />segments or the exact costs; the DAC would help decide whether projects should be added or removed from <br />the list depending on expenditure of funds. She said the deadline for referring a measure to the ballot was <br />August 6, 2008. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council June 9, 2008 Page 6 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
