He wanted government to spend tax dollars efficiently in a time of declining revenues. He wanted <br />the City to support existing schools and businesses rather than subsidize new schools and <br />businesses. <br /> <br />Nick Urhausen, 2858 Warren Street, noted his involvement in the election to place the flag on <br />Skinner Butte Park, and said that if the measure had not passed he would not have whined about <br />the fact it might have passed with a few more votes. He likened the situation to the vote on the <br />West Eugene Parkway. He acknowledged that the vote was close but said the fact of the majority <br />was not insignificant for that reason. Mr. Urhausen urged the council to abide by the election <br />results. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey closed the public forum and called for council comments. <br /> <br />Councilor Kelly thanked those offering comments regarding the proposed school-related measure, <br />and said he hoped the City could move ahead with the measure. <br /> <br />Councilor Meisner said he recently discussed the proposed school measure with a member of the <br />Pendleton School Board, who indicated that city took a similar approach but the proposed <br />measure had failed dismally because of the question of regional equity. City voters were being <br />asked to support a much larger district. He anticipated he would receive information about the <br />measure from the school board member, and indicated he would share that with the council and <br />staff. <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman thanked those offering comment. She agreed with the remarks of Ms. <br />Whitmore and said she hoped the council could offer the voters a measure they could support. <br />She wanted the measure to be instruction-related or supportive of actual teaching, such as <br />funding school counselors or school nurses. She said she would support a measure that mirrored <br />those interests. <br /> <br />Speaking to Ms. Cuellar's remarks, Councilor Bettman said the cost for general information was a <br />"moving target," and the cost had increased to $400,000 from an initial $300,000. Subsequently, <br />$325,000 was allocated to the PIC, and the Planning and Development Department made the <br />decision regarding how to allocate the funding. She characterized the study done by the <br />department regarding the provision of information as perfunctory, and called for a more <br />comprehensive study of other services provided by the department, as it was her perception that <br />the City was providing a lot of free services to the development community. <br /> <br />2.Ceremonial Matters <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey recognized Councilor Rayor for receiving the Engineer of the Year Award from the <br />Professional Engineers of Oregon. He noted that among other things, Councilor Rayor was <br />recognized as the engineer of record for the DeFazio Bicycle Bridge. <br /> <br /> MINUTES--Eugene City Council July 8, 2002 Page 2 <br /> Regular Meeting <br /> <br /> <br />
