Mr. Rayor said that he supported the intent of the motion, but asked how it fit into LUCU. He <br />suggested that this may not be the proper forum for such a discussion. <br /> <br />Mr. Meisner said that as a future agenda item, it does not mean that it must fit within the Land <br />Use Code. He said that it could be a policy goal, as stated in the Whiteaker Plan Update. Mr. <br />Meisner asked if the issue was limited to west of the University. Mr. Kelly said that it was also an <br />issue to the east of the University. Ms. Bettman said that it was also an issue to the south. <br /> <br />Mr. Johnson suggested that the motion went beyond the scope of LUCU and has general fund <br />impacts beyond the Planning Division. He said that it was important to appropriately prioritize <br />this issue, and the next, in the list of other priorities coming not only from this process, but other <br />City processes. Mr. Meisner asked if there should be a work session to further discuss this <br />issue. Mr. Johnson said there were already policies which speak to increasing home ownership. <br />He asked how LUCU relates to home ownership in one area of the city. It is similar to work that <br />the City is already doing in other areas. <br /> <br />Ms. Childs said that it might also be useful if staff outlined the priority recommendations from the <br />West University Scoping report and a status report on what has already been done for the <br />council. She said that the public safety recommendations received highest priority and have <br />already been implemented. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman said that admittedly, she did not have all the answers, which is why she asked that <br />this item be considered for the future work program. Ms. Bettman said that it was her motivation <br />to see how LUCU might be used to have an impact on home ownership. Mr. Johnson said that <br />Ms. Bettman's explanation was useful. <br /> <br />Mr. Kelly provided additional feedback to the City Manager, suggesting that there needs to be a <br />discussion on the prioritization of those items on the work program. He said it would help to <br />have staff identify other departments that might be involved. Mr. Johnson concurred. <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor said that she felt that there were parts of LUCU which were detrimental to home <br />ownership. She said that this seemed closely related. <br /> <br />Mr. Meisner said that with the clarification, he would support the motion. Mr. Meisner asked that <br />Planning staff provide updates on issues such as the implementation of the West University Plan <br />and comparable efforts. <br /> <br />Mr. Rayor said that he would support the motion. He said that it might effect cottage zoning, but <br />that the disconnect with the code was disconcerting. <br /> <br /> The motion passed unanimously, 5:0. <br /> <br /> Ms. Bettman, seconded by Mr. Kelly, moved to direct the City Manager to add <br /> as a future work program item to investigate the adoption of a local housing <br /> code to improve the condition of housing. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman said that the motion was one way to address the lack of a local housing code which <br />might reestablish long-term residency in some of the neighborhoods. She said she would like to <br />establish a local housing code to preserve housing stock. <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council November 1, 2000 Page 6 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br /> <br />
