commission members would agree that something had to be done. There was no consensus on whether <br />Country Club Road, EWEB or a new facility was the best way to go. <br />Mr. Zelenka thanked Mr. Alsup and Ms. Miller for their work. He noted the commission now had liaisons <br />with the HRC and the Civilian Review Board (CRB), and asked what formal mechanisms existed for <br />commissioners in terms of integrating information from those groups into the commission's work plan. <br />Ms. Miller said the issue had been discussed in a joint meeting with the CRB in June. The system was <br />new and undergoing change. A CRB liaison attended Police Commission meetings and two annual reports <br />had been received from the Police Auditor, one from Cris Beaumud and one from Dawn Reynolds. A <br />formal mechanism had yet to be developed and there had been one request to look at an incident regarding <br />flashlights which the UOF Committee had reviewed. There was still work to be done. The HRC had also <br />experienced change and had been in a reforming period. <br />Mr. Alsup said the most relevant aspect was the PAORC and the ability of the commission to come <br />together with all stakeholders and community members. <br />Mr. Zelenka encouraged the commission to implement the mechanisms for working with the HRC and <br />CRB as soon as possible. He supported a hate crimes conference for the City and suggested contingency <br />money could be used for such an event. <br />Mr. Clark thanked the UOF committee and the CRB for their responsiveness in holding a special meeting <br />on use of force issues. <br />Ms. Ortiz asked that the commission ensure that trends were documented by the CRB and not necessarily <br />the Police Auditor. <br />Ms. Miller said some members of the commission had struggled with how issues had been presented to <br />them. The CRB and the Auditor had been one homogenous group, going together to the commission, and <br />presenting joint reports. She said it would be helpful for the commission to have clarification to know how <br />the process flowed with the CRB work being separate and apart from that of the Police Auditor. Although <br />their roles touched and concerned each other, they were different. <br />Mr. Zelenka, seconded by Mr. Clark, moved to approve the Police Commission's <br />FY10 Work Plan. The motion passed unanimously, 8:0. <br />C. WORK SESSION: <br />Current Status of Systems Development Charges <br />Mr. McVey offered the staff report and provided a PowerPoint presentation entitled Systems Development <br />Charges. He said the purpose of the work session was to provide the City Council with information <br />related to the current status of Systems Development Charges (SDC) in Eugene regarding policy <br />framework, purpose, use of funds, financial impacts on development projects, and efforts to provide relief <br />for development during the current economic downturn. <br />City Manager Ruiz stated that a three - pronged approach consisting of use of stimulus recovery package <br />projects, planning for the next regional economy with other jurisdictions, and removing obstacles that <br />supported development was used. He added postponing SDC increases as well as encouraging financing <br />and working with developers had been identified by staff as one tool for removing obstacles that supported <br />development. <br />MINUTES— Eugene City Council July 13, 2009 Page 5 <br />Work Session <br />
