From:bdmay1@comcast.net <br />To:*Eugene Mayor and City Council; <br />Whilamut Passage <br />Subject: <br />Wednesday, July 21, 2010 2:39:39 PM <br />Date: <br />Hello, Barbara May here. I strongly support the naming of our new <br />bridge "Whilamut Passage"--I was very pleased to learn that ODOT <br />favors this name as well. As a Kalapuya word Whilamut reflects the <br />native people's value of this wonderful, life giving resource, and it <br />underscores the past and present of our river as an organism as well <br />as a vehicle of movement. Please put your stamp of approval on this <br />name! Thanks, bye bdm (Barbara Dale May, Assoc. Prof. Emerita, <br />UO dept of Romance Languages, & Board President, Willamette <br />Riverkeeper). <br />
