From:T FRIZZELL <br />To:*Eugene Mayor and City Council; <br />Subject:naming the bridge <br />Date:Sunday, July 11, 2010 2:14:13 PM <br />I personally do not like the name Willamut for the new passing <br />bridge. The name is frequently <br />mispronounced (travelers and visitors mostly), and Willamut will make <br />it even more confusing on how to pronounce <br />. I know there is history behind the name, <br />(Willamut), but how many of us really know what that is, and the <br />travelers/visitors probably won't know either, unless there is a <br />plaque to read. And where along I5 will the plaque be placed to <br />read? Maybe the closest rest stop to Eugene? <br />Name the bridge after the beautiful river it spans. <br />Thank You, <br />Teresa A.
