Mayor Piercy pointed out the subsidy in question was based on income and available to all, no matter <br />where one lived. <br />Councilor Brown agreed with Mayor Piercy. He said not every resident of south Eugene was a <br />millionaire. Plenty of south Eugene residents were experiencing economic distress. He pointed out that <br />many people involved in both projects qualified for the subsidy. Councilor Brown did not like to hear <br />comments that divided the community, which he considered counterproductive to the goal of improving <br />the community's streets. <br />Roll call vote: The motion passed, 5:2; councilors Clark and Farr voting no. <br />Mayor Piercy acknowledged the motion had passed without sufficient support to take effect immediately. <br />Mayor Piercy adjourned the meeting at 8:01 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />U <br />Beth Forrest <br />City Recorder <br />(Recorded by Kimberly Young) <br />MINUTES— Eugene City Council May 23, 2011 Page 4 <br />Regular Meeting <br />
