Management Policies were codified, Mayor Piercy suggested the examination he desired should be the <br />outcome of a council decision because of the scope of the task. <br />Mr. Clark pointed out to those concerned about growth that it was important to perfect future water rights <br />to maintain Eugene's stake in any conversation about regional growth. He agreed with Mr. Taylor's <br />remarks about the need for a collaborative approach to regional planning. He wanted Eugene to do a <br />better job in collaborating with its regional partners. Mr. Clark regretted the demise of the Region 2050 <br />planning effort but suggested its failure could be attributed to a lack of focus on best outcomes for the <br />entire region. <br />Mr. Clark suggested that to the degree that Veneta could increase its employment base, it would reduce <br />the number of people driving to Eugene and decrease Eugene's street maintenance obligations. He called <br />for less of a focus on how Eugene could restrict the actions of its neighbors and more of a focus on <br />collaboration toward a better mutual end. <br />Mayor Piercy wanted to honor both that the City desired to work with its regional partners as well as the <br />fact it had its own policies and goals it was trying to achieve. <br />City Manager Ruiz indicated staff would schedule a public hearing on the item. <br />Mayor Piercy adjourned the meeting at 1:28 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Beth Forres <br />City Recorder <br />(Recorded by Kimberly Young) <br />MINUTES— Eugene City Council November 10, 2010 Page 7 <br />Work Session <br />
