<br />ATTACHMENT E <br />M I N U T E S <br /> <br />Eugene City Council <br />McNutt Room—City Hall <br />777 Pearl Street—Eugene, Oregon <br /> <br />February 29, 2012 <br />Noon <br /> <br />COUNCILORS PRESENT: George Brown, Pat Farr, Betty Taylor, George Poling, Chris Pryor, Alan <br />Zelenka. <br /> <br />COUNCILORS ABSENT: Andrea Ortiz, Mike Clark. <br /> <br /> <br />Her Honor Mayor Kitty Piercy called the February 29, 2012, work session of the Eugene City Council to <br />order. <br /> <br />A. WORK SESSION: <br />Review of 2011 Implementation of Bond Measure to Fix Streets and 2012 Pavement <br />Management Program <br /> <br />Public Works Director Kurt Corey reminded the council that Eugene voters approved a $35.9 bond <br />measure for street repairs in November 2008. The measure included a contract with an outside auditor to <br />report on the use of the bonds as well as establishment of a Street Repair Review Panel to advise the City <br />Manager on the expenditure of those funds and to ensure they were spent in accordance with the bond <br />resolution adopted by the City Council. He referred the council to the auditor’s letter, included in the <br />meeting packet, which found the City in compliance with the purpose and limitations of City Council <br />Resolution 4953 and noted no exceptions. The packet also included a report from the Street Repair <br />Review Panel finding the City in compliance with the resolution, included in the meeting packet as <br />Attachment A. Mr. Corey highlighted some of the report’s recommendations. <br /> <br />Maintenance Director Jeff Lankston and Surface Operations Manager Eric Johnson then led the council <br />through a PowerPoint presentation entitled 2012 Pavement Management Report. The presentation <br />highlighted key points in the full report in the council packet, and included information showing the <br />impact of renewing the 2008 bond on the street maintenance backlog. Councilors asked questions <br />clarifying the details of the presentation. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy want to know when residents of badly damaged roads such as North Seneca Street could <br />expect repairs. She asked if a slurry seal was possible on such a street. Mr. Langston said the focus of <br />the slurry seal program was on improved residential streets with asphalt. The segment in question was <br />gravel, and the City’s grading and gravel program ceased in the early 1990s due to budget concerns. <br />Mayor Piercy acknowledged the budget and the fact the streets in question were unimproved, but <br />suggested the street conditions might make residents living on such streets to feel like second-class <br />citizens. They seemed to occur where people had the least ability to do something about them. Mr. <br />Corey concurred. He suggested that the City might be able to use some Road Fund dollars to make <br />nominal repairs on gravel streets. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council February 29, 2012 Page 1 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
