<br /> <br />Eugene Celebration in September. In addition, project materials will be available on the website <br />throughout the process, including fact sheets, presentations, and links to relevant information. The <br />website will also be used to collect public feedback on proposed projects and urban renewal issues. A <br />Frequently Asked Questions section will be maintained and updated based on feedback received via the <br />internet or though outreach at community events. (See Attachment E for more details on the draft public <br />involvement plan.) The draft public involvement plan will be referred to the Planning Commission for <br />its review. The comments, suggestions, and amendments of the Planning Commission will be <br />incorporated into the final public involvement plan. <br /> <br />Next Steps <br />The council will meet August 10, 2009, as the Urban Renewal Agency Board to discuss the potential <br />projects, financial requirements, possible boundary expansion and to act on initiating the amendment <br />process. Staff will provide project information, boundary maps and draft potential changes to the <br />Downtown Urban Renewal Plan and Report in the materials for the work session. <br /> <br />An increase to the maximum indebtedness (spending limit) and expansion of the boundary by more than <br />1% are both considered major amendments to the urban renewal plan and must follow a specific process <br />by state statute. A draft timeline for the process is provided as Attachment G. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br />Staff is seeking input, confirmation and feedback that the level and type of information provided is the <br />right level of detail and kind of information the Mayor and council would like to see when they <br />officially initiate on August 10. <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br />No recommendation is needed. <br /> <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION <br /> <br />No motion is suggested. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br /> <br />A.Downtown Project Tools and Assistance <br /> <br />B.FY10 Proposed Budget for the Urban Renewal Agency <br /> <br />C.Case Studies Information <br /> <br />D.Map of Downtown Urban Renewal District <br /> <br />E.Draft Public Involvement Plan <br /> <br />F.Example Level of Project Information – Park Blocks Improvements and Local Business Assistance <br /> <br />G.Draft Timeline for the Urban Renewal Plan Amendment Process <br /> <br /> <br />FOR MORE INFORMATION <br /> <br />Staff Contact: Amanda Nobel Flannery <br />Telephone: 682-5535 <br />Staff e-mail: amanda.nobelflannery@ci.eugene.or.us <br /> Z:\CMO\2009 Council Agendas\M090708\S090708A.doc <br />
