HomeMy WebLinkAbout10/26/1987 Meeting M I NUT E S e Eugene City Council Dinner/Work Session BJ's Restaurant, 44 East 7th Avenue October 26, 1987 5:30 p.m. COUNCILORS PRESENT: Debra Ehrman, Freeman Holmer, Jeff Miller, Rob Bennett, Cynthia Wooten, Ruth Bascom, Roger Rutan. COUNCILORS ABSENT: Emily Schue. His Honor Mayor Brian B. Obie called the work session to order. 1. DISCUSSION OF BALLOTING TO DETERMINE INTERVIEWEES FOR DOWNTOWN COMMISSION, PLANNING COMMISSION, AND THE EUGENE-SPRINGFIELD METROPOLITAN PARNERSHIP OPENINGS Mayor Obie said the balloting to determine interviewees was scheduled as the last item on the agenda for the council's meeting later in the evening at 7:30 p.m. Ms. Wooten suggested that the council postpone balloting for the Downtown Commission opening and solicit more applications for a couple of weeks. e Because only three applications have been submitted, Ms. Wooten said she would like to have a broader variety of applicants from which to choose. Mr. Bennett said that only three applications was somewhat of a low response, and that he would not object to soliciting additional applications for a couple of weeks. Ms. Ehrman said she did not have a strong opinion on the matter. Mr. Holmer said the three applicants seemed worthy of being interviewed. He said he was not sure what policy could be used to justify postponing the ba 11 ot i ng . Mr. Miller, Ms. Bascom, and Mr. Rutan did not express strong opinions on this matter. Mayor Obie said one option would be to interview the three applicants; then, if councilors feel a need to solicit additional applications, this could be considered. Ms. Bascom said the three Metro Partnership members have served only two one- year terms; rather than interviewing applicants, the council should reappoint these three members. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 1 Mr. Rutan said that if the council intends simply to reappoint the current members, it should state this at the outset and not interview other e applicants. Ms. Wooten said she was disturbed by one of the applications of the three current members. She said that if the council does decide to reappoint them, she would at least like the council to have the opportunity to discuss with the members how they view their role on the Metro Partnership. She said that with the exception of Bob Fenstermacher, she was not sure about whether the current members should be reappointed. Ms. Ehrman asked staff to provide councilors with a more legible photocopy of Sallie Edmunds' application to be a member of the Planning Commission. II. DRAFT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN A. Review of the Process and Draft Plan Mr. Rutan, Chair of the Council Committee on Economic Diversification (CCED), said the development of this plan took a long time, perhaps too long. He said the draft represented the input of CCED members (Councilors Rutan, Wooten, and Holmer), City staff, the staffs of other public agencies, and seconda ry research. He said the purpose of this meeting was for the council to review the draft plan, ask questions, and make comments. Mr. Rutan emphasized that the plan is still a draft, or an outline, and that additional input from the council and the public is needed in order to make it truly a community economic development plan. e Ms. Wooten said CCED began its efforts by conducting a thorough and critical review of the City's past and present economic development situation. The committee generated a series of IIwhite papersll analyzing various programs, projects, and ongoing strategies. Then, with the help of staff and many others, the committee began to establish priorities and develop the draft plan. Ms. Wooten outlined the major points of the plan's IIGoals and Objectivesll section. She said the goals and objectives were not too different from those of past economic development efforts. Mr. Holmer made a few comments about the plan's fi rst two chapters, IIBackground on the Local Economyll and IIHi story of Economic Development Planning and Assessment of Progress.1I He said the City has had a substantial hi story over the last seven or eight years of involvement in economic development planning. He said the results suggest that the City ought to continue being active in this regard. He said the draft plan remains consistent with the objectives the City has had in the past. He said the economic indicators suggest that progress is being made in Eugene. Somewhat taking issue with a comment made by Mr. Rutan, Mr. Holmer said he did not think the development of the draft plan took too long, especially in light of the time required to adopt past economic development plans. Mr. Holmer specifically referred to three statements in Chapters 1 and 2. The second e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 2 paragraph on page 3 stated that IIUp to World War II, agriculture was the main industry in the region.1I He asked staff to verify the accuracy of this; he e said he thought the timber industry was dominant in the region before World War II. The third paragraph on page 7 stated that "additional high quality office space has been recently constructed in the Country Club Road area and at the Valley River Office Park.1I Mr. Holmer mentioned that this is in Ward 5. The fifth paragraph on page 15 stated that IIUniversity enrollment for 1986 was the hi ghest ever recorded. II Mr. Holmer asked staff to update thi s by replacing 1986 with 1987. Mr. Rutan said that when developing an economic development plan, the City needs to have a clear understanding of past and present development efforts-- this i s the purpose of Chapters 1 and 2. He a 1 so said the background information in the first two chapters will inform members of the public and allow them to better participate in the discussion of the plan. Ms. Wooten said that Chapter 3, "Buil di ng on Successful Strategies,1I i dent ifi es the aspects of past economic development efforts that have succeeded and recommends ways to continue and enhance this success in the future. She briefly outlined the major points and strategies in the chapter. Mr. Rutan said that Chapter 4, IIInto the Future--Eugene as a Regional Center,1I identifies a short list of specific programs and projects to further economic development of the community. He reviewed the major points and strategies in thi s chapter. B. Goals and Objectives e Ms. Bascom referred to the plan's goal, which is to IIbroaden, improve, and diversify the metropolitan economy while maintaining/enhancing the environment.1I She said nothing in the plan seems to address specifically the 1 atter ha If of thi s goal. Ms. Wooten said one of the plan1s assumptions, whi ch perhaps could be underscored more directly, was that one of Eugene's strengths in terms of marketing is its high quality of life. She added that the plan does refer to the Entrance Beautification Study (Chapter 2, page 10) as one of things to implement the latter half of the plan's goal. Ms. Ehrman added that the Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority (LRAPA) could be mentioned in chapter 3 as something that should be supported in the future in order to preserve the environment. Mr. Bennett said the council should take a narrow view of the goals and objectives: efforts to maintain and enhance the environment through such things as the Entrance Beautification Study and LRAPA should be viewed as ways to achieve economic development, rather than as being part of the economic development goals and objectives. Mr. Bennett referred to the plan1s six objectives: 1) to reduce unemployment; 2) to increase quality job opportunities; 3) to increase per capita net income; 4) to lower residential, commercial, and industrial vacancy rates; 5) e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 3 to increase the city's regional retail market share, and to retain or increase downtown Eugene's retail market share; and 6) to increase business starts and e expansions. Mr. Bennett said the plan's objectives should be more specific-- more quantitative, more mea s urab 1 e . He said the objectives need to be measurable in order for the City to be accountable for the funds it spends on economic development. Ms. Wooten said CCED considered stating the objectives in more quantifiable terms. She mentioned two problems with doing this: 1) it can position the City for failure due to economic factors beyond its control; and 2) it can create expectations among members of the public that may not be realized. Mr. Bennett said he was not advocating the establishment of unrealistic objectives. Mr. Holmer agreed that measurable standards are needed in the City's economic development efforts; however, such standards would be more appropriate in some sort of annual plan than as part of the objectives of the overall economic development plan. Ms. Bascom agreed. Mr. Miller agreed with Mr. Bennett's point that the plan's objectives need to be measurable in some way. He said that goals are usually stated in more general terms, whereas objectives are usually specific and measurable. Mr. Rutan said there are many factors involved in economic development that are beyond the City's control. He said that although the City can have an important impact on economic development, in most cases it does not--and should not--play the major role. He said that when setting objectives, the e City must realize that it is only one part of the economic development picture. Mr. Rutan added that although some economic development objectives can be quantified and measured, the determination of whether a particular effort was successful rests in part on subjective, speculative, or non- quantifiable evaluations. He said the City should set specific objectives; however, it should not delude itself: 1) about the impact it can have on economic development; and 2) about how objective the evaluation of economic development efforts can be. Ms. Wooten added that the results of economic development efforts are often not as measurable as people would like. She also said that the draft plan discusses the need for accountability and recommends that several programs and projects be evaluated to determine whether they are indeed providing benefit. Referring to the fourth objective, Mr. Bennett said that the lowering of residential vacancy rates carries with it the effect of increasing housing costs. Mayor Obie said the goals and objectives should address Eugene's positioning relative to the national economy. He said one of Eugene's weaknesses is its excessive dependence on swings in the national economy. He sa i d economi c diversification is an effort to lessen the impact that such swings in the national economy have on Eugene. He said this is not mentioned as specifically as it might be in the "Goals and Objectives" section. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 4 C. Chapter 1: Background on the Local Economy e Ms. Ehrman and Mr. Bennett said they appreciated the information presented in Chapter 1. Mayor Obie said he hoped that the plan in its final form will deal in more specific terms with the wood products industry. He referred to a statement on page 5 that "this sector has regained much of its pre-recession production capacity but with approximately 40 percent fewer workers. II He sa i d this figure seemed too high. Mr. Rutan said CCED discussed several times what the plan should contain regarding the wood products industry--specifically, whether the City should be involved in lobbying to assist the industry in sustaining its current allowable timber yeild. He said the committee felt that this was not an appropriate role for the City. Ms. Wooten added that a number of years ago, the council informally decided not to involed the City in this type of lobbying. Mr. Obie said that how the spotted owls and wilderness areas are treated will have more impact on employment that any other single issue. He sa i d the council will not be doing its job if it chooses to ignore this. Referring to a statistic on page 5 of the plan, Ms. Ehrman mentioned that Eugene has only about 25 percent of the county's wood products employment. Mr. Rutan emphasized that the plan is meant to be a Eugene plan. He said e Eugene is different in terms of economic development than Springfield or Lane County. D. Chapter 2: History of Economic Development Planning and Assessment of Progress Mr. Rutan said that in this chapter the committee tried to evaluate the City's economic development efforts objectively and critically, but without being overly negative. Ms. Ehrman asked committee members to discuss some of their criticisms. Ms. Wooten said that in the area of site and infrastructure development, some decisions were made on assumptions that have not been realized. Mr. Rutan mentioned that private demand has not followed the City1s sewer expansion at the rate that was expected. He also mentioned that one issue with the Business Assistance Team is, IIHow does one go about measuring its progress?1I He said that what the Business Assistance Team does is not particularly understood or known by the community. Mr. Rutan also mentioned that about 80 percent of future economic development will come from businesses or activities that are already in the area. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 5 E. Chapter 3: Building on Successful Strategies e Ms. Bascom referred to the first strategy listed in the "Site Planning" section of Chapter 3: "Explore the potential for creating a wider variety of high quality industrial sites through redesignation or reconfiguration of existing industrial property." She asked whether CCED considered--or whether this strategy was intended to address--the issue of increasing the amount of industrial property in the city. Mayor Obie said this was an issue for the committee to consider when it meets again. Ms. Ehrman referred to the second strategy listed in the "Site Planning" section of Chapter 3: "Prepare an airport vicinity refinement plan, including analysis of the feasibility, practicality, and compatibility of commercial and i ndustri a 1 development." She said there is a 1 ready di sagreement and concern about whether expanding the Urban Renewal District will work against the efforts to develop the downtown core intensely; she suggested that this strategy will raise the same issue to an even greater extent. Mr. Rutan said a refinement plan is needed to study and address just the type of issue raised by Ms. Ehrman. He sa i d the City has a long way to go (currently there is no road or sewer system in the airport area) to have significant development around the airport like the type of development that surrounds other metropolitan airports. He said this cannot occur in a vacuum; that is why a refinement plan is needed. Ms. Wooten said that she had reservations about the strategy also; however, if one takes a long-term view, pressure for development in the airport area will occur. Ms. Ehrman agreed, but said she was concerned that implementing the e strategy at this time might be premature. Mr. Rutan said he did not think it would be premature, because the refinement plan process is quite lengthy (five to ten years from the beginning of the process until a refinement plan's policies actually begin to be implemented). Mayor Obie said the plan should address and the public should discuss whether the City should be in the development business. He said the Metro Partnership has been tryi ng to get significant developers interested in developing property in the area and has been unable to do so. Ms. Wooten agreed that this issue should be addressed directly in the plan and should be the subject of public discussion. She added that the second strategy in Chapter 4 (page 20) addressed thi smatter somewhat by recommending that the creation of a nonprofit economic development corporation be explored. Mr. Miller said he was not sure how the strategies in the "Special Events" section of Chapter 3 and the plan1s goals and objectives are integrated. He said the strategies address local events; however, he said he liked the idea of promoting special events of national caliber. Mr. Holmer said this is addressed in Chapter 4. Mr. Miller said an important issue is that the City does not have unlimited funds; therefore, decisions have to be made regarding whether promoting local events is the most cost-effective way to further economic development. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 6 Ms. Wooten said the strategies in the "Special Events" section of Chapter 3 have the objective of creating events and opportunities for convention and e tourist activity. Ms. Bascom said local events promote the covention and tourism many industries. Referring to the second strategy in the "Business Assistance/Job Retention" section of Chapter 3 (page 17), Mayor Obie said the City should not continue the Business Contact Program under its present basis. He said it did not make sense to pay the Chamber of Commerce to do something it should be doing anyway. He said that if the chamber does not want to do this, the City should assume the responsibility by itself. Mr. Bennett said the money being spent on the Business Contact Program is needed for other things. Mr. Bennett reiterated the point made by Mr. Miller that the draft plan includes almost everything. He sa i d that because the City I S funds are limited, priorities need to be set so that the plan focuses on the activities with the greatest economic development potential. Mr. Holmer agreed, adding, however, that the plan should be more comprehensive at this stage in order to allow the public to comment on all of the possible options; during and after public input, priorities can be established. Mayor Obie said the Business Assistance Team seems to have varied somewhat from its initial course of assisting and being an advocate for businesses in e the permit processing area. Eugene Development Department Director Abe Farkas said this was true. He said the Permit and Information Center (PIC) has grown over the last few years and there are more staff members who can assist in the permit processing area. Mayor Obie said that although he recognizes some of the difficulties it creates within the City bureaucracy, this is the single greatest value of the Business Assistance Team. F. Chapter 4: Into the Future--Eugene as a Regional Center Ms. Ehrman referred to the second strategy in Chapter 4, which called for exploring the possibility of creating a nonprofit economi c development corporation for the purpose of expanding the development assistance available in the community. In response to a question from her, Mr. Farkas said the Metro Partnership is a recruitment entity, not a development entity. He said this strategy envisioned the creation of a true development corporation. He sa i d that in severa 1 cities, such corporations have successfully acquired land, constructed speculative buildings, managed them, and leased the space to tenants. Mr. Bennett said one often hears complaints about not being able to get private developers to do the speculative building and risk taking to create an environment for economic development. He said that if the private sector is not doing this, the risks must be too high. He said that if the public sector enters this business, it needs to be fully aware that it will be taking risks that the private sector has not been willing to take. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 7 Ms. Bascom said that the wording of this strategy does not indicate clearly enough that the nonprofit development corporation would be a City-sponsored e organization. Mr. Miller said that if the City is serious about implementing the economic development plan, it will need to set priorities within the plan itself, or divert funds from other areas in the City budget toward economic development. Mr. Holmer said one thing he likes about the draft plan is that it would require a review of the Capital Improvement Program wi th an economic development focus. Ms. Ehrman referred to the first strategy in the last section of Chapter 4: "Establish a sports council to develop a long-range plan to market Eugene as an international center for amateur athletics.1I She said she was not sure whether a permanent sports council would be needed. She said the City pays the Eugene-Springfield Convention and Vistors Bureau to do some of this activity. Ms. Wooten said the bureau does not have the people needed to market Eugene as an international center for amateur athletics. Mr. Rutan said this strategy envisions a much more expanded and dynamic role in this area that the one currently played by the bureau. He sa i d the strategy envisions attracting some major events to Eugene. In response to a question from Ms. Bascom, Ms. Wooten said the sports council probably would be a nonprofit group with some type of agreement with the City. Mayor Obie said that a certain amount of special events promotion can be done with Eugene's existing facilities; beyond this point, however, to be truly e successful in attracting special events, the City will have to commit funds to capital projects. He said this is an area of tremendous potential. He encouraged the plan to go farther in this area, both in terms of facilities and how it will be financed. Ms. Bascom said that the construction of a new library would be another capital project that would promote Eugene as a regional center. Mayor Obie suggested that CCED meet again to discuss the input from the council, modify the draft plan as it deems appropriate, and then release the plan to the public. Other councilors agreed with this suggestion. Mayor Obie adjourned the work session at 7:22 p.m. ?;~~ Micheal Gleaso City Manager (Recorded by Monty Hindman) e MINUTES--Eugene City Council October 26, 1987 Page 8 ;. , e TALL Y SHEET EUGENE-SPRINGFEILD METROPOLITAN PARTNERSHIP CHURCHILL, BRIAN FENSTERMACHER, BOB 1m JI 7 HAMILTON, PATRICIA--1j ~ HOYT, THOMAS W1 J ~ KAHANEK, ANN-1 , NIELSEN, ROBERT , J WAGENKNECHT, JEANNE__LA11 ~ e Recorded by: Assistant City Manager Date e e B ALL 0 T Board or Commission: Metropolitan Partnership Number of Openings: 3 openings Term(s} to Expire: December 31, 1987 to nomin e 2. 3.
