From:Judy Collins <br />To:HALVERSON Daniel E <br />Subject:Shedd proposal <br />Date:Friday, May 31, 2019 5:32:44 PM <br />Dear Dan, <br />Thanks for being the collector of public emails concerning this proposal. <br />Ginevra just sent me one solution for the problem of public safety in the alley between The <br />Shedd and their parking lot. I must admit, when I have been in that lot and been making my <br />way into the building, I have felt very vulnerable and have always had a sense of relief making <br />it safely into the building. <br />Although I am sure it is not the norm for the City to sell alley properties to the adjacent <br />buildings and businesses, I think in this case it would improve public life and safety <br />enormously. An added bonus would be that when the artist's conceptual drawing is built, it <br />would improve ADA accessibility to the building. I haven’t attended functions at The Shedd <br />in several years as my knee has suffered trauma and although they are currently compliant and <br />I could attend events, I no longer have the stamina to make it from the parking lot to the front <br />of the building to access events. <br />This proposal addresses several problems in productive, life-affirming ways. I think life in <br />Eugene would be improved by allowing The Shedd to buy the alley. <br />Thanks, <br />Judy Collins <br />June 17, 2019, Public Hearing – Item 1
