<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 />May 14, 2012 <br />5:30 p.m. <br /> <br />COUNCILORS PRESENT: George Brown, Pat Farr, Betty Taylor, Andrea Ortiz, George Poling, <br />Alan Zelenka, Chris Pryor, Mike Clark. <br /> <br />Her Honor Mayor Kitty Piercy called the May 14, 2012, work session of the Eugene City Council to <br />order. <br /> <br />A. COMMITTEE REPORTS <br /> <br />Mr. Pryor reported that the Housing Policy Board (HPB) had one remaining land bank site. The HPB <br />planned to fund property renovations this year, which could involve the purchase and renovation of <br />foreclosed properties that would then be used for affordable housing. <br /> <br />Ms. Ortiz reported on the Public Safety Coordinating Council’s Juvenile Justice Committee, which had <br />been discussing the issue of disproportionate minority contacts and the lack of beds at John Serbu Youth <br />Campus. She referred the council to an article she provided that indicated one child in three had some <br />form of police contact before they reached age 23. Ms. Ortiz noted that the “Rites of Passage” summer <br />academies would again take place at Lane Community College this year. <br /> <br />Mr. Brown reported that the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission’s ecosystem restoration <br />riparian shade projects encountered a temporary funding snag as the agency learned that administrative <br />expenses could not be paid for by the Environmental Protection Agency grant. The projects were <br />intended to lower water temperatures before water passed the wastewater treatment plant to prevent high <br />water temperatures that harmed fish. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy reported on the recent Lane Area Commission on Transportation (ACT) meeting, saying <br />State Senator Floyd Prozanski provided a presentation on a proposed Territorial Road intended to enhance <br />safety conditions on the road and sought feedback on the project from the ACT. The ACT had learned <br />that the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) was seeking to break down its program ‘silos” <br />and had combined two grants programs and formed an Active Transportation Section to integrate <br />programs and funding sources to promote multi-modal and sustainable transportation solutions. ODOT <br />was also taking a new approach to prioritization of projects in the State Transportation Improvement <br />Program that expanded the role of the ACT and shifted the agency’s focus from highways to more multi- <br />modal needs. <br /> <br />Mr. Farr reported on the recent dedication ceremony for two homes being renovated to house returning <br />veterans, and noted that City Jon Manager Ruiz was instrumental the renovations happen. The project <br />was the result of a partnership between St. Vincent de Paul, the Bethel School District, the Lane County <br />Homebuilders Association, and the City of Eugene. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />MINUTES—Eugene City Council May 14, 2012 Page 1 <br /> Work Session <br /> <br />
