From:Steve Dear <br />To:BERNARD Dana M <br />Cc:Karl Eysenbach; zondie zinke <br />Subject:Ferry Street Manor MUPTE Application -- Against <br />Date:Tuesday, May 14, 2019 4:58:38 PM <br />To City of Eugene <br />c/o Dana Bernard <br />Dear City of Eugene, <br />You recently approved the Olive Lofts. You recently approved the Gordon <br />Lofts. Is there any reason to assume you will not approve the Ferry Street <br />Manor MUPTE application? You seem poised to give a ten-year tax emption <br />to this developer with proposed rents over $1,000 for 449 sq. ft. studios <br />and $1,384/mo. for 574 sq. ft. <br />It’s graft. Is there anyone with a conscience in Eugene anymore? Is there <br />any functionality left at all? Could you please ostensibly do something <br />ethical towards to goal of actually reducing the poverty and homelessness <br />in our community? <br />You could start by denying this giveaway and using the tax funds towards <br />truly low-income housing. <br />“‪MUPTE robs ordinary citizens and small property owners so big time <br />developers can get major tax breaks! You pay because they don't have <br />to!” – Eugene’s Karl Eysenbach <br />Sincerely, <br />Stephen Dear <br />88865 Lois Ln. <br />Elmira, OR 97437 <br />September 11, 2019, Work Session – Item 1
