<br />ATTACHMENT A <br /> <br />ORDINANCE NO. <br /> <br />AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE INSTITUTION OF <br />PROCEEDINGS IN EMINENT DOMAIN FOR THE <br />ACQUISITION BY CONDEMNA TION OF PROPERTY <br />FOR PARK LAND IN THE RIVER ROAD/SANTA CLARA <br />AREA; AND DECLARING AN IMMEDIATE EFFECTIVE <br />DATE. <br /> <br />The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that: <br /> <br />A. The City Council has authority under provisions of the City Charter and <br />applicable state law to institute proceedings in eminent domain for the acquisition by <br />condemnation of private property within and without its corporate limits for the public purpose <br />of public parks. <br /> <br />B. Acquisition of a community park site in the Santa Clara area has been a priority <br />item of the City Council since early in the year 2000. Staff has met with and worked with <br />representatives of the community group, Santa Clara Citizens for Sensible Parks and Open Space <br />(SCCSPOS), to discuss issues around community park selection. <br /> <br />C. Both the PROS Comprehensive Plan adopted by the City Council on February 13, <br />2006 and the PROS Project and Priority Plan adopted by the City Council on May 22, 2006 <br />recognize the priority of siting a community park in the Santa Clara area. In addition, the City's <br />1998 Parks and Open Space bond included funding for a community park in Santa Clara, with <br />$900,000 of this funding still designated for this purpose. This sum is supplemented by an <br />additional $2,000,000 from the 2006 Parks and Open Space bond. <br /> <br />D. The 8.5 acre parcel located north of the Madison Middle School and 16 acre <br />parcel located to the east of the school, which are more particularly described on Exhibits A and <br />B hereto, are within the area recommended for location of a Santa Clara community park. The <br />policies and goals of the City and the directive of the electors of the City in approving the 1998 <br />and 2006 Parks and Open Space bonds can best be met by the acquisition of the real property <br />described on Exhibits A and B hereto. <br /> <br />E. The public good realized from the acquisition far outweighs any damage which <br />the property owners might sustain, particularly in light of the City's obligation to provide just <br />compensation to the affected property owners. <br /> <br />Ordinance - 1 <br />
