Ms. Nathanson said she was very interested in collaborating with Eugene Water & Electric Board <br />(EWEB)on its site redevelopment. It was in the interest of both the City and the utility to work <br />together on a cohesive plan. She asked if the City was at the point of that collaboration yet, or <br />was the utility doing its planning unilaterally? Mr. Farmer responded that there was good, <br />continuing contact at the staff level and he anticipated collaboration. He said at this point, the <br />issue was one of timing. Mr. Johnson added that EWEB's General Manager Randy Berggren <br />requested information about the timeline for the Chiquita site plan development; he was unable to <br />provide Mr. Berggren with that information. EWEB staff indicated that the utility could consolidate <br />and move things around on the site and was willing to discuss that, as well as consider some <br />public use of the EWEB property. <br /> <br />Mr. Farmer provided a brief status report on the department's efforts regarding implementation of <br />the vision to this point. <br /> <br />B.Request for Reconsideration <br /> <br />Mr. Meisner explained that he would like to change a vote he had cast at the meeting of February <br />26, 2001, and wished to offer a motion to reconsider. He said that in the absence of Pat Farr, he <br />would then move to table the motion. He wished to change his vote because the motion, as <br />stated, did not give the City the flexibility to look at other routing and access options. <br /> <br />The motion was: <br /> <br /> Mr. Rayor, seconded by Ms. Nathanson, to recommend to the TransPlan <br /> adopting officials that West Eugene Parkway Units IA and lB be included in <br /> the financially constrained project list of TransPlan, and that West Eugene <br /> Parkway Units 2A and 2B be removed from the future projects list in <br /> TransPlan, and that the City pursue the construction of Units IA and lB in <br /> conjunction with ODO T. <br /> <br /> Mr. Meisner, seconded by Mr. Kelly, moved to reconsider the motion. <br /> <br />Mr. Rayor and Mr. Pap8 left the meeting. <br /> <br /> The motion to reconsider passed unanimously, 5:0, and the original motion <br /> was on the table. <br /> <br /> Mr. Kelly, seconded by Mr. Meisner, moved to table the motion. The motion <br /> to table passed unanimously, 5:0. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 1:40 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />James R. Johnson <br />City Manager <br /> <br /> MINUTE--Eugene City Council February 28, 2001 Page 7 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br /> <br />
