Police Commission could amend its bylaws without council approval and questioned why the OTC would have <br />that kind of oversight. <br />Ms. Wilson explained that the formation of Area Commissions on Transportation (ACTs) was governed by the <br />OTC's policy on the formation and operation of ACTs. She said the OTC was concerned that bylaws adopted by <br />ACTs might not follow the OTC's guidelines. <br />Mayor Piercy observed that the ACT was an entity of the OTC and that the legislature had required Lane County to <br />form an ACT. <br />In response to a question from Councilor Poling, Ms. Wilson stated that there was a possibility that there could be <br />multiple- representation on the Lane ACT because of the membership. She explained that there was a <br />representative from the Metropolitan Policy Organization (MPO) and from the Cities of Eugene and Springfield, <br />but the intent of any ACT was that they should represent the entities from which they were appointed. She said <br />while there could be some overlap, there would not be overlap specifically on a representative of the Highway 26 <br />East area. She further explained that the bylaws specified that the six citizen members should not all represent one <br />particular interest group. <br />Councilor Zelenka ascertained from Ms. Wilson that the OTC had to approve the original bylaws. She stated that <br />all of the bylaws and amendments to bylaws for all of the ACTS had been approved by the OTC. <br />Councilor Clark, seconded by Councilor Taylor, moved to approve adoption of the revised Lane <br />Area Commission on Transportation bylaws. Roll call vote; the main motion passed, 7:1; <br />Councilor Brown voting in opposition. <br />The meeting adjourned at 9:39 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />c R <br />Beth Forrest, <br />City Recorder <br />(Recorded by Ruth Atcherson) <br />MINUTES— Eugene City Council May 24, 2010 Page 12 <br />Regular Meeting <br />
