Ms. Ortiz discussed her perceptions of how levels of intolerance in the community had developed over <br />long periods of time. <br />Ms. Taylor noted that it was important to preserve the rights of individuals and further noted her <br />disturbance at the HRC's willingness to remove a member on the grounds that he had expressed his <br />beliefs inappropriately. She further noted that in the 1940s she had written an article for a national <br />publication about the dangers of being "intolerant of intolerance." <br />Ms. Taylor, seconded by Mr. Poling, moved to place the proposed Anti -Hate Resolution <br />on the next City Council meeting agenda. The motion passed unanimously, 6:0. <br />Mayor Piercy responded to Ms. Taylor's previous comments, saying that civil rights legislation was <br />primarily designed to acknowledge the rights of groups. <br />Ms. Ortiz maintained that the proposed Anti -Hate resolution represented a positive step toward providing <br />improved law enforcement in the community. <br />Mayor Piercy adjourned the work session meeting at 1:16 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />ta Jc <br />Beth Forrest <br />City Recorder <br />(Recorded by Wade Hicks) <br />MINUTES— Eugene City Council June 30, 2010 Page 6 <br />Work Session <br />
