THAT IT WAS TO BE AN EXPERIMENT AND A MEANS TO SEPARATE THE PEDESTRIAN,TRAFFJC FROM VEHICULAR TRAFF'IC BY ALLOWING A FREE F'LOW OF PEDESTRIANS IN THE CENTER OF TOWN WITH PARKING ON THE:PERIMETER, WHICH IS BASED ON THE MODERN CONCEPT OF PLANNING COMMERCIAL', AREAS.

IT WAS POINTED OUT THAT THIS MAY BE CONFUSING TO THE PEDESTRIAN SINCE HE W?ULD BE ALLOWED TO,CROSS THE STREET ~T WILL WHILE ON WILLAMETTE STREET:BUT~;, WOULD NOT, BE ALLOWED TO DO: SO ON OTHER STREETS. D. THE POINT WAS MADE THAT THE CLOSING OF WILLAMETTE STREET WOULD BE VERY DIS- ,RUPTIVE ,TO THE NORMAL VEHICULAR TRI\F"F'IC'FLOWS WHICH COULD, PRESENT A DANGE~,OUS.: SITUATION AND FROM WHICH THE CITY MIGHT,INCUR ~OME LIABILITY. IT AP~EARSj I HOWEVER, IF PROPER LIGHTING AND SIGNING WERE HAD THE CITY WOULD HAVE NO ' 'LIABILITY, BUT IN THE EVENT OF A FATAL ACCIOENT THIS PRECAUTION WOULD NO~ \ BRING"BACK A'LIFE.

I F. THE POINT WAS MADE THAT WHILEITHIS WAS BEING DONE ON' AN EXPERIMENTAL BASIS, THE EFrECT or IT MAY LEAD TO CLOSURE AT SOME rUTURE DATE AND BEFORE SUCH COM- P~ETECLOSURE IS MADE' A GREAT DEAL OF' STUDY AND THOUGHT WOULO'HAVE TO GO INTO ~HE CONSEQUENCE OF SUCH ACT10N.

THE- POINfWAS'MA~E THAT If WILLAMETTE STREET WERE CLOSED FO~ A~ INDEr)NITE PERIOD IT MI GHT LEAD'TO THE BUI LDI NG UP or OTHER CENTERS or SHOPP'I NG AWAY rROM THE CITY CORE, ALTHOUGH IN RErUTATION IT'WAS POINTED OUT THAT EUGENE DOES NOT HAVE surrlCIENT POPULATION TO SUPPORT OTHER THAN' A CORE AREA. 1h.; . H. T~ERE WASiSOME EXPRESSION or OPINION THAT If THE EXPERIMENT or CLOS1NG METTE STREET WERE:SUCCESSfUL, THEN THE OUTSIDE PERIMETER STREET~ MIGHT WIDENED'TO ALLOW AMORE CONVENIENT TRAffIC flOW AROUND THE CORE AREA.
