Convention was the second such event and thanked Lisa Barrong of the Eugene Police Department and her staff for <br />their work on the event. He also recognized the anniversary of the Adaptive Recreation function and thanked staff. <br />He noted the fact it was Adaptive Recreation Month, and encouraged councilors to talk to Adaptive Recreation staff <br />about the work it was doing. He commended the professionalism and quality of Adaptive Recreation staff. <br /> <br />City Manager Ruiz also planned to attend the Cal Young Neighborhood Association meeting. <br /> <br />City Manager Ruiz said the Budget Committee would meet on November 2. He believed last year’s budget process <br />went exceptionally well and anticipated this year’s budget would be equally challenging, if not more so. <br /> <br />City Manager Ruiz noted the upcoming Eugene Counts event on October 14. He also announced the Low to No <br />Vision Resource Fair, part of the White Cane Celebration, scheduled on October 15 at the Hilyard Community <br />Center. <br /> <br />B. WORK SESSION: H1N1 Briefing <br /> <br /> <br />The council was joined by Joe Rizzi of the City’s Human Resource and Risk Services Division, who provided an <br />update on H1N1 in the community and answered council questions about the nature of the illness. Mr. Rizzi <br />emphasized that people should stay home if they were ill, should cover their mouths when they coughed, and should <br />wash their hands. He also provided the Lane County information hotline: 682-4181. <br /> <br />C. WORK SESSION: Engaging the Community in Land Use and Future Growth Options <br /> <br /> <br />The council was joined by Carolyn Weiss of the Planning Division, who provided an update on the public <br />involvement process that will follow the Eugene Comprehensive Land Analysis (ECLA) . This process will build on <br />the results of the ECLA to define a vision for the future of Eugene. Planning Director Lisa Gardner and City <br />Attorney Glenn Klein were also in attendance. Councilors asked questions clarifying the information presented. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy solicited council comments. <br /> <br />Mr. Clark advocated for a process that was different than the traditional discussion the community had held on such <br />issues. He wanted to avoid polarization and to bring people together as much as possible. He called for a principle- <br />driven process that talked about the shared principles and values that everyone in the community had, and a push <br />toward solutions that focus on those shared principles and values. <br /> <br />Mr. Clark asked where adoption of the ECLA fit in the deadlines associated with House Bill 3355. Ms. Gardner said <br />the City would meet the requirement established by the legislation by December 21, 2009. The chart provided by the <br />council demonstrated there were many ongoing efforts that would inform the policy choices that followed; the <br />question was at what point in time did the council want to “take the snapshot” that informed its decisions. She <br />suggested that progress on some of the projects would help paint a more complete “policy picture.” <br /> <br />Responding to a follow-up question from Mr. Clark about the legal timelines mandated by the state legislature in <br />regard to the establishment of a Eugene-only UGB, Mr. Klein indicated legal staff would follow-up with a <br />memorandum. Responding to a follow-up question from Mr. Clark, Mr. Klein averred that HB 3355 did not split the <br />Eugene-Springfield UGB but gave both communities the authority to independently establish a UGB. Mr. Clark <br />asked if it was true that nothing that Eugene did as part of its adoption process affected Springfield, and vice versa, <br />all the way to adoption of the UGB. Mr. Klein said in general, yes; however, he would ensure staff followed up in <br />the memorandum. He reminded the council that the Lane Board of County Commissioners was also a part of any <br />decision-making process related to the UGB. <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—City Council October 12, 2009 Page 3 <br /> <br />
