She noted <br />how important the partnership with the City of Eugene has been for LCC and the community. She talked <br />about the funding and noted it would not have been possible without the "public, public, public, public <br />partnership." She explained why she worded it that way, stating that the ability to leverage funds from <br />several public agencies allowed LCC to bring this dream to reality. She noted that one of the wonderful <br />things about this building is that energy efficiency will be taught to students through their everyday use <br />and occupancy of the building. <br />Ms. Spilde introduced Jenette Kane, director of Continuing Education, who discussed some of the details <br />of the student housing and the components of the new education center. Ms. Kane noted that in addition <br />to student housing, the following will be in the new building: <br />• Small Business Development Center <br />• Energy Management Program <br />• English as a Second Language <br />• General Education Classes <br />• Continuing Education Programs <br />• New Center for Meeting and Learning (in the center of the two "Ls" of the buildings which will <br />hold about 250 people) <br />MINUTES — Eugene City Council September 24, 2012 Page 1 <br />Work Session <br />
