Councilor Taylor, seconded by Councilor Kelly, moved that the bill, with unanimous consent of the council, be read the second time by council bill number only, and that enactment be considered at this time. Councilor Taylor, seconded by Councilor Kelly, moved to add Section 4 to thc Ordinance Concerning Tree Removal and Replacement to provide: "Notwithstanding the effective date of ordinances as provided in the Eugene Charter of 1976, it is necessary to further the orderly implementation of the new provisions and procedures adopted herein that this ordinance become effective 30 days after the effective date of a final court decision voiding Measure 7. If this final court decision finds Measure 7 valid, then this ordinance is automatically repealed."

She also suggested adding the phrase "and providing an effective date" to the caption of the ordinance. Councilors Kelly and Taylor indicated acceptance of the recommendation as a friendly amendment to the amendment. Roll call vote; the amendment passed unanimously, 8:0.
