Ms. Taylor thanked Drix for giving the council things to think about. She liked Mr. Ivanoff’s idea of <br />making the streets two-lane throughout the central area of the City. She noted that some streets were not <br />under City jurisdiction. <br /> <br />Ms. Taylor echoed Ms. Bettman’s sentiments regarding the legal decision made about Civic Stadium and the <br />decision not to appeal. <br /> <br />Mr. Zelenka thanked Drix for his testimony. He agreed with Mr. Porter that the School District 4J should <br />return the Civic Stadium back to the City. He noted that the school district would have to undergo a long <br />public process in order to sell it. <br /> <br /> <br />3. CONSENT CALENDAR <br /> <br />A.

Approval of 2007-08 Funding Allocations for Federal Community Development Block <br />Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships Program and American Dream Downpayment <br />Initiative Programs <br /> <br />Councilor Ortiz, seconded by Councilor Pryor, moved to approve the items on the Consent Cal- <br />endar. <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman indicated she had submitted minutes corrections via email and she also pulled Item C. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy deemed the corrections, without objection, approved. <br /> <br />Roll call vote; the motion to approve the Consent Calendar, with the exceptions of Item C, <br />passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br />Councilor Bettman asked what the approval of recommendations implied in terms of utilizing money for that <br />purpose. She asked if it was just for housekeeping. <br /> <br />Grants Manager for the Community Development Division, Linda Dawson, explained that because the <br />document was for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Section 108 Loan <br />Guarantee Program had to stay on the table. She affirmed that it was in a sense a housekeeping move for <br />the HUD report. <br /> <br />Roll call vote; the motion to approve Item C, approval of 2007-08 funding allocations for <br />Federal Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships Program <br />and American Dream Downpayment Initiative Programs, passed unanimously, 8:0. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council April 9, 2007 Page 3 <br /> Regular Meeting <br /> <br />
