<br />Ms. Bettman disagreed with the last statement, then read from the summary: “this bill will immediately <br />transfer all staff, functions, powers and budget of the Office of Emergency Management(OEM) from <br />Oregon State Police to the Oregon Military Department.” Mayor Piercy said it was such a significant issue <br />that she would be reluctant to take a position based on the information they had. She felt the position should <br />be “monitor.” Ms. Bettman agreed, proposing that it be a Priority 1 Monitor, noting that her constituents <br />would not support militarizing what was a civilian function. Mayor Piercy recommended that the bill be <br />monitored in the IGR committee, as she felt it would evolve a lot. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman said she would like to see a summary from a manager projecting how the proposed legislation <br />would affect local emergency services. Mr. Cushman agreed to coordinate a response. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman, seconded by Mr. Pryor, moved to change the recommendation to Priority 1 <br />Monitor. The motion passed unanimously, 3:0. <br /> <br />? <br /> SB 162 – Relating to medical services provided in emergencies. <br />Recommended to Monitor. <br /> <br />Ms. Kamppi said the bill was submitted from the Department of Human Resources and served to regulate <br />all first responders, including police, fire and ambulance services. The Department currently regulated <br />ambulance services only, and the proposed regulation did not have resources attached to support the <br />required inspections. She noted that the bill was opposed by the Oregon Fire Chiefs Association, the Oregon <br />State Ambulance Association, and the Oregon Fire Administrators Association unless proposed changes <br />were made. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman said she would support the “Monitor” recommendation, but thought the bill made a lot of <br />sense. Mr. Pryor said it appeared to be a money issue. Mayor Piercy said it sounded as if they were <br />anticipating a possible pandemic that required state and local cooperation. Ms. Bettman asked for an update <br />at the next session. <br /> <br />? <br /> SB 237 – Relating to pesticides. <br />Recommended to Drop. <br /> <br />Mr. Potter said the bill proposed to raise the fee for manufacturers or distributors to file pesticide informa- <br />tion with the state; he recommended a drop because he did not see an effect on the City of Eugene. In <br />response to Ms. Bettman’s question about current funding, Mr. Potter said there apparently was not enough <br />money to get the program off the ground, hence the bill. Ms. Bettman said that although it was not related <br />to a City program, it did have an overall public benefit and was a program the community would support. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman, seconded by Ms. Taylor, moved to change the recommendation to Priority 3 <br />Support. The motion passed unanimously, 3:0. <br /> <br />? <br /> HB 2077 – Relating to licensing requirements. <br />Recommended to Monitor. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman wondered why they were monitoring the bill instead of dropping it, as it seemed more like a <br />professional issue than a city issue. Mr. Gallup said the initial feeling was to “see where it goes.” He did <br />not see a problem with dropping the bill. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Council Committee on Intergovernmental February 6, 2007 Page 5 <br /> Relations <br />
