<br />Whiteaker Community Council <br />P.O. Box 11692, Eugene, OR 97440 541/684-8064 <br /> <br />March 3, 2006 <br /> <br />Eugene Planning Commission <br />clo Kent Kullby, AICP <br />99 West 10th Avenue <br />Eugene, Oregon 97401 <br /> <br />Re: Support for renaming of 3rd/4th Connector (SC 06-1) <br /> <br />Whiteaker Community Council is in support of the proposal initiated by the Eugene <br />City Council to rename the 3rd/4th Connector (also known as "3rd/4th Avenue") to <br />Shelton Boulevard. <br /> <br />At our general meeting on February 8, 2006, we discussed the proposal and <br />reviewed the applicable part of the Whiteaker Plan, the adopted plan related to the <br />site. A vote was taken and there was no objection to the proposed change. The <br />general meeting asked the board to submit an official comment for Whiteaker <br />Community Council. <br /> <br />We agreed that an historic name that relates to the area's 19th Century history is <br />fitting, and we support Shelton Boulevard, in honor of one of the earliest residents <br />of what is now Whiteaker neighborhood, Dr. T. W. Shelton. While we recognize <br />the inconvenience and expense for those whose addresses will change, we <br />believe this name change is in the best interest of the city. <br /> <br />As chair of this neighborhood association, I am also reporting that I have not been <br />contacted by anyone following the public notice that opinions may be stated to <br />one's neighborhood association. <br /> <br />Majeska Seese-Green <br />Chair <br /> <br /> <br />;,.:;;;; ,.. <br />., "~"__''''"~'.'_'__''''_.''''''''__ .........H...... <br /> <br />\ ' <br />/' <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />MAR <br /> <br />6 2006 <br /> <br />: ~..J <br />l""y.,' <br /> <br />cc: Ray Wiley, Shelton-McMurphy-Johnson House board <br />City Councilor Andrea Ortiz <br /> <br />City Of tuge"e <br /> <br /> <br />Networking Neighbors! <br /> <br />28 <br />
