<br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER <br /> <br />December 11, 2008 <br /> <br /> City of Eugene <br />777 Pearl Street, Room 105 <br /> <br /> Eugene, Oregon 97401-2793 <br /> (541) 682-5010 <br /> (541) 682-5414 (FAX) <br /> www.eugene-or.gov <br /> <br />IN THIS WEEK’S EDITION <br />FIRE & EMS DEPARTMENT TO FILL DISTRICT CHIEF VACANCY <br />SPECIAL EVENT FRIDAY MORNING CELEBRATES COURTHOUSE STREET WORK <br />BOUNTY OF ACTIVITIES IN WINTER/SPRING RECREATION GUIDE <br />PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD EXTENDED FOR NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES <br />STATEWIDE PERMIT FEE CHANGES JANUARY FIRST <br /> <br />AROUND THE CITY <br />Fire & EMS Department to Fill District Chief Vacancy <br />The position of District Chief is a critical element in the emergency response command structure of Eugene Fire & <br />EMS Department. On every 24-hour shift, there are two District Chiefs on duty, each responsible for the response <br />resources of about half the city, and each supervising approximately 25 firefighters and medics. A recent <br />retirement has created a vacancy in one of these six key positions, providing the <br />department with an opportunity to exercise its commitment to succession that has <br />been a part of the Fire & EMS Strategic Plan for the past two years. Effective <br />immediately, Capt. Craig Shelby has assumed the role of Acting District Chief. A <br />former Eugene police officer, Craig came to the Fire & EMS Department in 1986 <br />and has served as a Firefighter, Lieutenant, and Captain. Craig is one of seven <br />experienced Fire Captains who have expressed interest and taken steps to prepare <br />themselves to assume the District Chief role. All seven are participating in the <br />department's Chief Officer Development Program, and other candidates will likely <br />rotate into the AIC role before a decision is made on a permanent District Chief. This process will help a number <br />of individuals become better prepared to advance into positions of greater responsibility as opportunities arise, and <br />will ensure continuity, accountability, and continued excellence in the department's command structure. For more <br />information, please contact Joe Zaludek, Deputy Chief of Special Operations, at 682-7103. <br /> <br />Special Event Friday Morning Celebrates Courthouse Street Work <br />City Council members are invited to join Mayor <br />Kitty Piercy, the Honorable U.S. District Court <br />Judge Michael Hogan and other officials on Friday, <br />December 12, at a special event to celebrate <br />completing more than $9 million in transportation <br />improvements around the new Wayne Morse <br />Federal Courthouse and reaching a significant <br />milestone in the vision to revitalize this historical <br />part of downtown. The event will begin 10:00 a.m. <br />with a “photo op” to demonstrate the new <br />signalized pedestrian crossing at 8th and Mill <br />streets. Immediately following, the Mayor and <br />Judge Hogan will speak briefly. Then the group will <br />adjourn to the new courthouse for doughnuts and <br />cider. “Celebrating A Milestone – Courthouse <br />District Transportation Improvements” celebrates <br />the reconnection of downtown and successful <br />federal, state and county partnerships. The project began in 2002 with the adoption of the “Courthouse District <br />Concept Plan.” The following year, the federal government approved $6.4 million in funding for the project and <br /> <br />EUGENE CITY COUNCIL NEWSLETTER PAGE 1 <br />December 12, 2008 <br />
