Roll call vote; the remaining items on the Consent Calendar passed unanimously. Regarding Item B, Councilor Kelly raised two concerns over the tentative agenda. He said that: 1 .) The planned work session on animal control on May 8, did not have enough time scheduled, and 2.) suggested replacing the discussion of the Medical Services Zone on April 8, with a discussion of campaign finance reform. City Manager Jim Carlson noted that the May 8 work session was already overbooked and said he would find time at a different meeting to allow a full discussion of the topic. Mayor Torrey suggested that he and the City Manager would make the needed adjustments to the tentative agenda. Regarding Item D, Councilor Bettman said the proposed revisions to the Natural Resources Study were not minor as stated in the Consent Calendar. She suggested maintaining the criteria that the City Council originally adopted. She raised concern that the proposed revisions would preclude eligible sites at a later time. Councilor Pap~ said that action on the item would be premature since the Metropolitan Policy Committee (MPC) was discussing the issue at a meeting later in that week. City Manager Carlson suggested scheduling another work session on the item after MPC had discussed it. Mayor Torrey suggested a motion to accept Option 2 as presented in the meeting packet. Councilor Kelly noted that he was displeased with the proposed revisions. He stressed that the revisions were not minor in nature. Councilor Kelly, seconded by Councilor Pap~, moved that the council proceed with the remaining steps in the Goal 5 process using the significance criteria that the Eugene City Council had previously approved on October 22, 2001. Councilor Kelly said the option would result in the Eugene City Council and the Springfield City Council disagreeing on the significant criteria and added that all differences would need to be discussed at Metropolitan Policy Committee.
