The minutes of the regular meeting of the COllrrrron Council held in the Council Qhambers on November 12, 1940 at 7:30 o'clock p.m. Mayor Elisha Large presided over the meeting. Councilmen present were: A. A. Reid, Sam C. Bond, A. C. Farrington, Louis Koppe, E. A. Barette, Ira O. Stewart and Orren Brownson; .r absent: Fred C. Carlson. 2' file. The minutes of the previous meeting were presented and ordered placed qn I Mrl A. L. Williamson addressed the council asking for a special permit to complete the building started on the property locate.d on Lawrence between 11th and 12th. Iv1r. \iilliamson had secured a permit for building a 4&car garage and has built the buildine; larGe enough to take care of his plumbing shop work and inasmuchas the stop order had been placed by the ,council, he was appealing to the council for. permission to complete the 'work and carryon his business. City Engineer Clubb informed councilman Reid upon questioning that Mr. Williams' business was being located in a multiple family zone and further reported that the Board of Appeals had taken no action upon this mat.ter because the council had placed a stop order on it and thereby removed it from jurdistiction of the Board of Appeals. Mr. \lilliamson had never filed an application for a special re-zoning permit. After a lengthy discussion, Councilman Reid made a motion, seconded by Ko p p e , to refer this matter back to the Board of Appeals, said motion to include 3' authority for the Board of Appeals to act upon the application and it was unanimously approved. Mayor Large accepted the preliminalY report from the special airport conmittee, which he had appointed for the purpose of negotiating best possible prices on airport sites. Ivlr . V' IV' Tugman pointed out briefly that there were v . lo three possible sites to date: (1) Section 6; (2) Section 31; and ( 3) Section 30; all base sections of land, adgbin~ng and running south to north approximately one m,ile east of the Pacific Highvmy and six to eight mi12:s north from Eugene. All I three sections received tentative approval of both the United States Army and the civil aeronautics authority. Mr. Paul Morris district en[ineer for the CM and two Gther engineers visited Eugene on November 10, and definitely desibnated Section 6 as the first choice, Section 31 as second choice and any combination of the two with additions out of Sectillon 5 to the east, as entirely satisfactory. Mr. Tugman further pointed out that in the purchase of Section 6, with additional land in Section 5 there would be sufficient land to provide an army cantonment site and it would save about ~10,000 of the original request so the total net cost to the city was $67,450 for 868.95 acres of land. Mr. Tugman stated that Captain E. G. Herb of the U. S. Engineers and his entire staff had been instructed to assist the City of Eugene to secure the necessary details and surveys to submit to the government and Captain Herb must know imnlediately the tract the city was going to purchase. City Attorney S. M. Calkins stated that the options which had been presented to him for checking ~\ere satisfactory. At this time Mr. E. Boehnke, member of the com~ittee, turned over to the city options on Section 6 stating to the council that the committee felt it had completed its task and it was up to the council to proceed from there on. It was pointed out by both Mr. Tugman and Mr. Boehnke that there were two pieces of property which the people were asking too much for and that the city should issue condemnation proceedings and there were two other pieces of land just slightly in excess of that paid and the balance of the tracts were satisfactory. City Attorney Calkins reported that he had talked with Richard Shore Smith, President of the First ~&tional Bank and E. R. Bryson, attorney, and they stood r"eady to assist the City of Eugene in financing the rJUrchas of the proposed airport. Communication had also been made with the Eugene branch of the United States National Bank of Portland, Oregon, and they offered their I cooperation and willingness to advance funds for the purchase of the land as-soon as legal details could be arranged. The following people expressed their recownenda tions to approve the purchase of Section 6,: William Tugman, Ed Boehnke, Robert Prescott, Ray A. McInnis, Earl McNutt, Mahlon Sweet, and Louis Koppe. Councilman Sam C. Bond stated he was very well acquainted with the land out there and felt it was a proper site. Councilman Farrington made a motion to exercise options for the purchase of Section 6 as an airport site and as to the selection of the army cantoninent site this be deferred until the army indicates its choice; also, the airport committee's report be accepted in the matter of condemn~tion an~ handling I of the balance of the owners. Councilman Bond seconded the motlon and lt was unanimously approved. A resolution in which the Common Council, acting upon the authority of the eleectors expressed in the election of November 5th, select~d Section 6, 'TownShip 17, South of Range 4 lifest as the site for the proposed alrpor~ was presented and upon motion made and second~d ~nan~mously approved by th~ councl1. At this time Councilman Reid expressed appreclatlon ln behalf of the coun?ll.for the work of the special committee and the IVlayor expressed the same appreclatlon ~ and thanked them very sincerely for their work. , .._._*_....~."...~.... _i-'" _.__~_~__...__..___...~.__......._ ~ ~ 387 _._'0.. ___ ~ - -. -~ F-....

Harp~am asking the council's cdnsideration of the following condition: "The 'surface water coming down 24th Avenue I fr'om the hill is' caught by two manholes at 24th' and Wil'lamette Street. It discharges into a drainage line that ends at the alley a short d istanc'e from Willamette Street, and causes an excessiNe amount of water to flood down 24th, an~ over adjacent prope y.
