ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-98-13-F of the City Manager City of Eugene ESTABLISHING INCREASED OFF-STREET PARKING FEES AND REPEALING ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 53-97-09-F. The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: A. Section 2.020 of the Eugene, Code, 1971 authorizes the City Manager to determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for services, goods, use of municipal property, and licenses and permits. In addition thereto, Section 5.040 of that Code specifically authorizes the City Manager to establish parking areas, time limitations, form of permissible parking, and fees therefor, subject to the maximum charges for off- street parking in Subsection 5.285(5) and on-street parking meter rates in Subsection 5.335(1 ). B. In accordance with the procedures set forth therein, and after considering the applicable criteria of Subsection 5.050(n)6. and Subsection 5.285(7) of the Eugene Code, 1971, on November 12, 1998 I issued Administrative Order No. 53-98-13 proposing an increase in the City's off-street parking fees set forth in Section A.1. of the Parking Fee Schedule and Regulations attached as Exhibit A to Administrative Order No. 53-97 -09-F, effective January 1, 1999 as set forth in the Notice of Intended Fees attached as Exhibit A thereto and incorporated therein by reference. C. The Notice was provided to the Mayor and City Councilors, posted at two locations at City Hall on November 12, 1998, and made available for inspection by interested persons at the office of the City Manager, City Hall, 777 Pearl Street, Eugene, Oregon, during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.. Monday through Friday, exclusive of holidays). In addition thereto, copies of the notice were placed on vehicles in the affected parking facilities on November 12, 1998. D. The notice provided that interested persons could submit written comments thereon for a period of 15 days from the date of posting. Four written comments were received, to which I make the following findings: Comment 1: Correspondence from Mary Sheriff indicates that she does not object to the rate increase as proposed but wants to make the City aware of certain problems associated with the Overpark. She reports that her car has been broken into twice this year, the facility was full on one occasion when she returned to park in the facility, and the monthly card reader was not functioning for several weeks. Findings: Inasmuch as the comments do not relate to the proposed rate increases, no findings are required herein, and staff will respond directly to the Administrative Order - 1 r:\adminord\fees\98offst2ao. wpd
