ATTACHMENT D <br />M I N U T E S <br /> <br /> <br />Eugene City Council <br />City Council Chamber—City Hall—777 Pearl Street <br />Eugene, Oregon <br /> <br /> April 12, 2010 <br /> 7:30 p.m. <br /> <br />COUNCILORS PRESENT: Alan Zelenka, Mike Clark, George Brown, Andrea Ortiz, Betty Taylor, <br />George Poling, Chris Pryor, Jennifer Solomon. <br /> <br />Her Honor Mayor Kitty Piercy called the meeting of the Eugene City Council to order. <br /> <br />1. CEREMONIAL MATTERS <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy announced that the first week of May each year was designated as Public Service Recognition <br />Week honoring the men and women who served America as federal, state, county and local government <br />employees. She read a proclamation recognizing the contributions of public service employees and <br />proclaiming May 4 - 10, 2010, as Public Service Recognition Week. <br /> <br />Ms. Piercy read a statement celebrating National Library Week and recognizing the role that libraries played <br />in the community and the lives of its citizens. She welcomed Jim Olney, executive director of the Eugene <br />Public Library Foundation. <br /> <br />Mr. Olney presented a check in the amount of $100,000 on behalf of the Eugene Public Library Foundation. <br />He noted that the foundation had raised almost $7 million over the past 25 years to support the Eugene <br />library system. He commended the partnership between the foundation and the City and stressed the <br />foundation’s continuing commitment to the vital role of libraries in Eugene. <br /> <br />Councilor Ortiz expressed her appreciation for public employees and for the Eugene Public Library <br />Foundation’s contribution. <br /> <br />2. PUBLIC FORUM <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy reviewed procedures for providing comments. <br /> <br />Bob Richards <br />, Timberline, Eugene, director of Buckley Center, spoke to funding concerns for the center’s <br />services. He said two years ago funding for sobering and detoxification services was cut by 40 percent. <br />Those services were critical to public safety and without them the police and other referring agencies would <br />have nowhere to take intoxicated individuals, as the jails would not accept them. He said a funding swap <br />agreement between the City and Lane County restored that funding through June 30, 2010, but if the <br />services were to continue additional revenue to replace that funding would need to be found. He said there <br />were discussions under way regarding inclusion of the services in a serial levy, but that would not be timely <br />because revenue from the levy would not be available until 2011 at the earliest. He was approaching all <br />jurisdictions to alert them to the need for funding after June 30 in order to continue sobering services until <br />more permanent funding could be secured. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council April 12, 2010 Page 1 <br /> <br />
