Mr. Poling, seconded by Ms. Solomon, moved to adopt Resolution No. <br /> 4832, as amended in Attachment B of this agenda item, with the boundary <br /> as proposed in Attachment F of this agenda item, including the addition of <br /> the 49.3 acre Pick and Pull parcel (tax lot 3700) to the boundary. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling reiterated that it would exclude the other six properties that were considered railroad properties. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz said while she appreciated the spirit in which the amendment was offered, the chance that <br />something of no benefit to the community would take over the property should it sell was too great. She <br />indicated that she would place a motion to amend on the table should Mr. Poling's motion pass. <br /> <br />City Attorney Glenn Klein suggested that Ms. Ortiz move to delete the language she objected to from the <br />amendment. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ortiz, seconded by Ms. Bettman, moved to amend Mr. Poling's <br /> amendment to delete the Pick and Pull property. <br /> <br />Mr. Kelly said it was important over the short term to respect the community's wishes on this. He pointed <br />out that the City Council could, by resolution, amend the boundary of the zone at any time. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling stated that the intent of his amendment was to make sure the definition of the railroad property <br />was addressed and the council was clear on the issue. He expressed his willingness to support Ms. Ortiz's <br />amendment. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman supported Ms. Ortiz's amendment. She added that she hoped the motion that removed <br />greenfields would be adhered to carefully. Mr. Braud assured her that staff had reviewed the entire area and <br />removed all of the greenfield sites according to the traditional Planning definition of greenfield. <br /> <br />Mr. Pap~ commented that he had never considered this property to be a railroad property. He thought <br />presupposing what would move on to this site was a mistake. He noted that substantial properties had <br />already been pulled out. <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor opined that the whole community stood to lose from the proposed enterprise zone. She said her <br />goal at this meeting had been to influence others to vote against the enterprise zone. Now she saw that in all <br />likelihood the main motion would pass and she wished to change her vote on Ms. Bettman's motion to <br />amend. <br /> <br />Mr. Klein explained that it was not possible to change her vote at this point. Ms. Bettman indicated she <br />would remake her motion. <br /> <br /> Ms. Taylor, seconded by Ms. Solomon, moved to extend the time by five <br /> minutes. The motion passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy called for the vote on Ms. Ortiz's amendment to Mr. Poling's amendment. <br /> <br /> The motion to amend the amendment passed, 5:3; Mr. Poling, Mr. Pap~, <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council April 20, 2005 Page 3 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br /> <br />
