IN THIS LOCATIO~ THE TRANSMISSION TOWER WOULD BE LOCATED TO THE NO.RTH NEAR,T,HE, LARGE TREES IN THIS AREA AND WOULD PROBABLY NOT MAR ANY OF THE BEAUTY OF SKINNER'S BUTTE PARK. I ,e ~ 4:9~ e 41 I THE OTHER LOCATION UNDER CONSIDERATION IS AT THE WESTERN'END OF THE BUTTE WHERE THE OLD WATER RESERVOIR WAS LOCATED.

IT IS THE OPINION OF THE CITY ATTORNEY THAT' THE EUGENE 'WATER & ELECTRIC BOARD COULD 'NEGOTIATE WITH THE RADIO STATIONS FOR THE USE OF THIS RESERVOIR FOR TELEVISION PURPOSES WITHOUT ANY OFFICIAl ACTION OF THE CITY COUNCle. , I , , No SPECIFI'C RECOMMENDATIONS WERE MADE AT THIS TIME AS IT WAS AGREED THAT FURTHER STUDY WAS NECESSARY."
