Ms. Ortiz echoed Ms. Solomon’s comments about the We are Bethel Celebration. She had enjoyed the <br />celebration. She related that the celebration had begun with a grant through the Weed and Seed project. <br />She said there had been a lot of children in attendance and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz shared her excitement about the Mayor’s Blue Ribbon Committee to Finance Homelessness and <br />Housing Programs. She reported that at the last meeting the history of the work to remedy and prevent <br />homelessness had been shared. She said one member had been asked to write down his oral history so that it <br />could be saved. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz related that she had attended a gathering at the Red Cross office to discuss the pollution from the <br />railroad yards. She indicated that she would bring this forward as a potential subject of a work session as it <br />was a community issue for those neighborhoods that were affected. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz said she was glad the HSC budget had passed but she had some concern about the money that was <br />“left over” that went to the County General Reserve Fund. <br /> <br />Mr. Pryor clarified that it did not go into the County General Reserve, rather it had been placed in the HSC <br />Reserve Fund. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz did not believe the money had been spent in the way the City’s Budget Committee had intended. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy was reminded that she had attended the We are Bethel Celebration, the Education Center <br />Meeting, and Bike Day which was co-sponsored by the Science Factory. <br /> <br />City Manager Taylor reported that he had received the draft ballot title for the referendum on the gasoline <br />tax. He said it would not be known if there would be enough signatures to place it on the ballot until June <br />29. <br /> <br />City Manager Taylor related that he had attended the Prefontaine Classic and had been impressed by the <br />athletes. He said the second the event concluded the work began to renovate Hayward Field in preparation <br />for the 2008 Olympic Trials. <br /> <br />Ms. Bettman asked if there was time to challenge the language of the draft ballot title. City Attorney Jerry <br />Lidz replied that a challenge could be made within five days. Ms. Bettman requested copies of the ballot. <br /> <br />Mr. Zelenka asked if the item could be placed on the November ballot. City Manager Taylor replied that he <br />was not certain. In response to a follow-up question from Mr. Zelenka, he affirmed that the balloting <br />process would cost the City approximately $100,000. <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council June 11, 2007 Page 3 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
