such events from happening. She anticipated the event would have legal consequences for many individuals. <br />She noted the outreach she planned to do to new and returning students about such issues. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling called attention to an error in the media calendar, saying the Harlow Neighborhood Association <br />would have an Executive Committee meeting, not a general meeting on September 30. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling reported he had recently attended a meeting of the Board of Directors of Travel Lane County and <br />heard a presentation about Kesey Enterprises’ success in increasing ticket sales for events at the Cuthbert <br />Amphitheater. He noted that Kesey Enterprises had just received another five-year contract to manage the <br />amphitheater. Mr. Poling said the Travel Lane County’s chief executive officer Kari Westlund was <br />evaluated by the board and received high remarks. He commended the work of Ms. Westlund. Mr. Poling <br />also reported that Eugene would host the Governor’s Conference on Tourism scheduled for April 10-11, <br />2011. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling indicated he would meet September 30 with residents of Sandy Drive and Eric Jones of the <br />Public Works Department regarding the condition of Sandy Drive at the Methodist Church at Oakway and <br />Cal Young roads. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling called attention to some postcards the council had received regarding budget reductions <br />potentially affecting St. Vincent de Paul and asked for more information, as he was unaware of the situation. <br /> <br />Mr. Poling thanked Eugene Police Department officers and officers from supporting police agencies for their <br />response to the West University Neighborhood situation. He reported he had attended Food for Lane <br />County’s “Empty Bowls” charity auction with Ms. Ortiz. He regretted he had been unable to attend the <br />LOC Conference because of the conflict created by other obligations. <br /> <br />Speaking to Mr. Poling’s question about the postcards the council had received, Ms. Solomon reported the <br />Human Services Commission (HSC) was rebalancing its priorities, and concern about that effort might be <br />the source of the postcards. <br /> <br />Ms. Solomon reported that she recently attended a meeting of the Public Safety Coordinating Council. She <br />had also chaperoned a third-grade field trip to Alton Baker Park where participants were able to view the <br />Talking Stones. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown reported on the most recent Police Commission meeting, saying the Use of Force Subcommittee <br />presented revisions to policies 306 and 308 and voted 5:4 to support the continuation of the Downtown <br />Public Safety Zone (DPSZ) after considerable discussion. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown reported that he also attended the last Civilian Review Board (CRB) meeting and said Police <br />Chief Pete Kerns, Police Auditor Mark Gissiner, and the CRB all agreed that the attack of a police dog on a <br />homeowner rather than the burglar he was confronting was not within policy. He had also attended the <br />recent Human Rights Commission meeting. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown noted that he had attended the United Day of Caring event and worked the mayor and other <br />councilors to clean debris and clear blackberries at Alton Baker Park. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown recommended that people view the exhibit currently at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum on the UO <br />campus, “Giuseppe Vasi’s Rome.” <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—City Council September 27, 2010 Page 2 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
