Councilor Meisner commented that all of the wards would include new areas. He noted that his <br />ward would cross 6th and 7th avenues, Highway 99, the railroad, and Beltline Highway. He <br />stressed that the ward would not be bounded by those. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey said that there were areas of common interest in the community that should be <br />considered. He suggested a ward boundary commission that would have independent citizens <br />that would plan ward boundaries that would reflect the community. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey stressed the importance of keeping River Road/Santa Clara together so that the <br />area could have adequate representation. <br /> <br />Mayor Torrey said that the urban growth boundary was stable and staff knew where future growth <br />would be. He added that if wards had to be adjusted to connect incumbent councilors with their <br />wards so that they could run again, that is what should be done. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 9:30 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br />James R. Johnson <br />City Manager <br /> <br />(Recorded by Joe Sams) <br /> <br /> MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 22, 2001 Page 7 <br /> Regular Meeting <br /> <br /> <br />
