EUGENE CITY COUNCIL
December 20, 1976
--,
Ad;ourned meetinQ--from December 13, 1976--of the Common Council of the city of
~uqene, Oregon, was called to order by Council President Gus Keller, in the
absence of Mayor Anderson, at 7:30 p.m. on December 20, 1976 in the Council
Chamber with the following Council members present: Eric Haws, Neil Murray, Ray
Bradley, D. W. Hamel, and Edna Shirey. Council members Tom Williams and Wickes
Beal were absent.
I. Public HearinQs
A. Request for permit to use mobile home for temporary offices at 4060
Stewart Road--CADCO Enterprises.
ManaQer noted there were no objections to the proposed use of a mobile
home for temporary office space provided the permanent office construc-
tion commence within six months and be completed within 18 months.
Public HearinQ was held with no testimony presented.
Resolution 2602--Granting permit for mobile home for offices at
e 4060 Stewart Road, CADCO Enterprises, no longer than
eiqhteen (18) months.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to adopt the resolution. Roll call
vote. Motion carried, all Council members present voting aye.
B. Appeal, denial of taxi license--Richard Glade Shimanek
Manaqer reviewed the application process and noted that upon the recom-
mendation of the police department the finance department had denied the
applicant's request for a taxi cab operator's license. Pu rsuant to the
Euqene Code, the applicant had appealed the denial to the City Council.
The Ci ty Manager read Eugene Code Secti on 3.050 setti ng forth the
basis upon which such licenses are granted. He reviewed the records of
the police department involving the applicant as contained in a
memorandum distributed to the City Council and reaffirmed the staff's
recommendation to deny the application.
Public hearinq was opened.
Richard Glade Shimanek, Rt. 4 Box 251, Dillard Road, Eugene, felt
the basis for the application denial was his mental illness. He
stated he was on leave from the State mental hospital. He did not
intend to drive taxi cab full time but to do maintenance and dispatch
work and to oenerally supervise the drivers of the cab company which
e he and his wife own. He felt the denial of his application had the
effect of treating him as a criminal. He stated doctors at the State
mental hospital were receiving more complaints about the police
departments in this area than in any other area of the state.

.
He asked why other cab companies were allowed to hire convicted murderers
who were on parole. He also noted that the state had awarded him his
chauffeur's license and that he had never had any difficulty involving
his drivinq privileges.
Mr. Haws asked if the applicant had had an opportunity to review the
memorandum from the Director of Finance to the City Council dated
December 20 and suggested that, if he had not, the proceedings should
be suspended to allow the applicant to review and respond to the
contents of the memorandum. Mr. Murray asked if a brief suspension
was sufficient time. Mr. Haws indicated that if the applicant wanted
additional time he would be happy to move to reset the hearing on the
matter for a later date.
Mr. Shimanek stated, "Go ahead and decide tonight."
Mrs. Shirey inquired if the applicant could engage in the activities he
described without picking up nassengers and whether or not that would
require a license. The manager responded no license would be necessary
unless he was picking up passengers. President Keller asked if the
kinds of functions Mr. Shimanek indicated he was going to engage in were
outside the regular licensing procedure and would require special monitoring
and licensing. Acting Chief of Police Larion stated that the applicant At
could operate in a car in the field and supervise his drivers, dispatch
and otherwise operate the business without a license. He only needed a
license if he were going to pick up passengers.
Public hearing was closed.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to deny the appeal and upho1 d
the staff's decision to deny the license.
Mr. Haws stated his motion is based on the information contained
in the Finance Director's memorandum of December 20, and that
he would be happy to consider new information should the applicant
have new information to present to the Council at some subsequent
time in connection with a new application for a taxi operator's
license.
Vote was taken on the motion as stated. Motion carried
unanimously.

II. Items acted upon with one motion after discussion of individual items as
e requested. Previously discussed in committee on December 15 (Present:
President Keller; Council members Haws, Beal, Williams, Murray, Bradley,
Hamel, and Shirey). Minutes of those meetinqs appear below printed in
sma 11 er type.
l. Items from Mayor and Council
Com 12/15/76 A. Community Development Application Process--Mr. Hurray reported
File on the Community Development Application Process currently
underway. The process is part of a three-year plan approved
by the federal government; this year major consideration is
being given to the heavily low-income population. Hr. Murray
said that requests for proposals have been circulated; responses
have been received from neighborhood groups, private groups,
the Human Rights Commissions, and the Downtown Development
Board. Additionally, a public hearing has been held and the
Housing and Community Development Commission has met to gen-
erate their own ideas as well. Staff has looked at the pro-
posals and made recommendations to the Commission, pointing
out those applications not allowable under the Community De-
velopment Act, those on which there is some local policy vio-
lation or not enough relationship to the low-income population,
as well as those which may have impact on some area now in a
critical planning process. He said the Commission has determined
. that, for at least another year, it will not fund any further
development of neighborhood centers unless a commitment has
already been made. The commission wants to have experience in the
field and an opportunity to work out on-going responsibilities
before deciding whether it wishes to pursue those areas again.
The application draft will be reviewed in January with a public
hearing to be held in early February. Subsequently, the Budget
Committe will review and the application will then go to the
City Council.
Com 12/15/76 B. Ordinance Adoption Rezoning the Area South of 29th and Wi11amette--
Affi rm As there had been some questions raised on the parliamentary
procedure followed at the December 13 Council meeting, Joyce
Benjamin of the city attorney's office distributed a report to
Council which outlined the proper procedure to be followed. She
explained that the action before the Council at its December 13
meeting was an application for a change in zoning submitted
following Planning Commission approval after a joint hearing
with the Council. It was not a new application. It if had been
a new application, it could not even have been considered. Mrs.
Benjamin noted that the bill had an extra reading at the December
13 meeting. At that meeting, she said, there was some question
whether the bill was being read for the first time. The first
motion to deny and adopt negative findings failed. At that
e
foOB Minutes 12/2(j76 - 3
'"
point Council moved to approve and adopt supportive findings. -e(
If that motion was construed as the first reading, the f:,lc t that
it lacked unanimous consent meant it must be held for second
reading December 20. Although the bill had an extra reading,
which may be superfluous, the action taken is still valid, said
Mrs. Benjamin. The bill is now set for a final reading December
20, at which time the Council can accept or reject the bill.
Mrs. Benjamin also mentioned the debate that arose at the
December 13 meeting on whether the public hearing should be
reopened. She said that, although the presiding officer could
have reopened the hearing, to have done so would have raised
issues of fairness, as there had been no notification to the
parties that another public hearing would be held. There was no
necessity for a hearing, as the matter had already been heard at
previous hearings.
Com 12/15/76 C. Budget Committee Appointment--Mr. Haws indicated that he would
File be recommending a Budget Committee appointment from Ward 6, to
replace Ray Bradshaw who is resigning.
Com 12/15/76 D. National League of Cities Meeting Report--Mr. Haws noted that
File the NLC meeting was a very rewarding experience. He said that
there were several different programs presented; for the most
part he attended programs having to do with small cities. He
also mentioned that he had opportunity to talk with Spring-
field council members at the meeting. He wondered if it would --C
I be possible for the two councils to exchange minutes in the
fu ture.
Mr. Bradley mentioned some of the substantive issues that were
addressed at the meeting. On the issue of public safety, the
delegates reaffirmed their earlier position regarding handgun
legislation. On transportation, they fe1 t the federal govern-
ment should have single funding sources for highway and road
improvements. The delegates also felt there should be area-
wide planning for common urban problems. Also discussed was
the possible decriminalization of the use of heroin. In that
regard Manager was under the impression from local press reports
that the drug under discussion was cocaine. Mr. Bradley said
that, as regards environmental quality, discussion was held on
establishing noise pollution controls, solid waste facilities,
urban deterioration controls, etc. He finally mentioned that
the city of Jacksonville, Oregon, received a citation for
their presentation on historic preservation.

~om 12/15/76 E. Metropolitan Plan Policy Committee Report--Report was dis-
ile tributed to Council members December 8. Mr. Bradley reported
e that the committee has established general areas of study invol-
ving local plans, population projections, employment, etc. . and
how they affect the metropolitan area. After these studies are
conducted, a target area will be isolated. Secondly, said Mr.
Bradley, the year 2000 was established as the target date to
coincide with planning activities, 1.e. , transportation, etc.
Thirdly, said Mr. Bradley, the committee is in the process of
identifying what particular areas in the current plan should be
evaluated. They have identified general areas as follows:
opportunity areas, industrial land areas within the metro area,
whether there should be a plan Giagram, and the concept of urban
boundaries. Staff has been providing the committee with data
which will be sorted out and re-examined; after that, Phase
II--the actual update--wi11 begin.
Mr. Williams mentioned the recent problems regarding the pos-
sible construction of a Bi-Mart store at 40th and Donald. In
that regard, he noted the differences between language in the
1990 Plan and the zoning ordinance. He would hope that the
language in the two could be more consistent. Mr. Williams also
mentioned the general tendency to separate commercial and
industrial areas--perhaps a merging would be more appropriate.
He cited a classic example of the U of 0, which is considered a
C basic industry. If zoned industrial, then housing in that area
would be a nonconforming use. Planning Director also mentioned
e that staff is looking at the use of the Plan Diagram as an
effective tool. He said staff would appreciate input, directed
to either him or Mr. Bradley.
Com 12/15/76 F. Police Chief Appointment--Manager announced the appointment of
File Mr. Pierce Brooks as the new Chief of Police for the City of
Eugene. Mr. Brooks was a former police chief in the city of
Springfield, served as Director of Public Safety in Lakewood,
Colorado, and has held command positions in detective, patrol, .
and intelligence divisions in Los Angeles.
Mr. Brooks will assume his duties in Eugene in early January.
Com 12/15/76 G. Budget Committee Appointment--Council member-elect Jack Delay
Approve has recommended the appointment of Mary Jane O'Brien, 1892 Olive,
to the Budget Committee from Ward 3.
Mr. Murray moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to approve the ap-
pointment as recommended. Motion carried unanimously.
Cor.: 12/1S/7() H. Distribution of Legal Opinions--Manager noted the distri- l.
File bution to Council of legal opinions on Budget Committee
appointments and on Zoning Board procedures.

Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Williams to call a public hearing
for December 20. 1976. :-
Mr. Haws requested that Council receive documentation on the matter
prior to the December 20 Council meeting. Assistant manager re-
sponded that staff will provide whatever it can, noting that security
and privacy legislation precludes non-criminal justice agency people
from reviewing certain facts. Mr. Bradley wondered if some other
. body could be delegated to act as a hearings officer on appeals of
this sort. Assistant Manage~ responded that it has been tradition
to have such appeals come to the City Council. Law does not require
that it be done that way, however. He suggested that staff could
look into other options on future appeals. He noted ,that the
appellant could always reapply if the process is changed. Mr. Haws
requested that staff provide Council with criteria to be used in (
deciding on granting licenses of this type.
I ( Vote was taken on the motion, which carried unanimously.
Com 12/15/76 IV. Southwest Hills Neighborhood Organization Charter--Proposed
An~Tove charter has been distributed to Council members, along with
December 1 letter from the secretary of the Southwest Hills
Neighborhood Organization.
Dewey Newman. 2040 Hawkins Lane, president of the association.
mentioned the controversy that has arisen over the name of the
, organization. The South Hills Neighborhood Organization has -e
protested the use of the name Southwest Hills by the group due
to possible confusion that could result. Mr. Newman said that
the organization developed a name that would reflect their geo-
graphical location. They request final approval of the charter
at this time, and they would be willing to subsequently select
\ a new name. Co\\

Mr. James Lemert, 10 East 40th, president of the South Hills
:. Neighborhood Association, strongly encourages the selection
of another name by the group to avoid possible future con-
fusion.
Mr. Murray referred to Article V, Section 4, of the charter,
which says that decisions shall be made by a majority vote of
those present and voting, except for purposes of amending the
( charter. In that regard, he did not feel it was clear what au-
thority the executive committee has to speak for the group. Mr.
Newman said that official positions could only be taken by the
general membership.
Mr. Haws felt that the group should come back within thirty to
sixty days with a new name.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Williams to approve the
charter as submitted. Motion carried, all Council members
present voting aye except Mr. Bradley voting no.
It was understood that the organization would come back
with a new name and no time limit was set.
Com 12/15/76 V. Cable TV Study in Connection with Franchise Study--December 8
memo from the Metropolitan Cable Television/Translator Commis-
Approve sionhas been distributed to Council members. The commission is
e recommending that the Cable Television Information Center at
the Urban Institute, Washington, D.C., be employed to conduct
technical and financ ial studies of the local cable system and
advise the commission on franchise negotiations. Mr. Williams
noted that it was his recommendation six months ago that the
commission needed high-quality technical assistance. The
decision at that time was to let the city attorney's office loo~ at <<
the matter. It is the attorney's opinion that the kind of expertise
being recommended is necessary. Mr. Williams further added that the
Cable Television Information Center is the only institution that
provides this type of service. Mr. Haws wondered if any of the cost
of the consultant would be recuperated. Mr. Williams responded that
three percent of the franchise revenue is now received by the city.
Any increase over three percent requires approval of the Federal
Communications Commission or a showing by the franchisor that
additional services are being provided to the franchisee. There is
some possibility of joint funding for this study. He also mentioned
that there is a request to increase the fee to five percent, which
would provide a local television origination process. There has
been no decision on that possibility as yet.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to authorize the
commission to enter into a contract with the Cable Television
Information Center for technical and professional services in
an amount not to exceed $17,500, cost to be shared among
e Springfield, Lane County, and Eugene, with Eugene's share
being 56 percent. Motion carried unanimously.

VI. Option Agreement with Lane County for Acquiring County Maintenance .
Com 12/15/76 Yard--Staff report of December 13 ~as been distributed to Council
Approve ~ers. Manager noted that it would be in the city's interest, from
economic and service points of view, to centralize the maintenance (
facilities. Vehicles from public works, police, fire, and parks
would be involved in the centralization. The matter has been
under discussion with the county for quite some time. The county
has agreed to make the city the first offer on the property.
Manager said that discussions today should relate to whether to
proceed and deciding on terms of acquisition of an option. He noted
that the costs and terms of the acquisition should be discussed in a
Council Executive Session.
Mr. Hamel moved seconded by Mr. Bea1 that the Council go
into Executive Session, as authorized for under ORS 192.660(2).
Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to approve, affirm, and file as noted

. III. Ordinances
Council Bill No. 1234--Rezoninq to C-2 SR the area south of south-
east corner of 29th Avenue-and Wi 11 amette Street (A & W)
(Z 76-20), read the first time September 13 and held, lacking
unanimous consent for a second reading at that time, read the
second time September 20 and denied, referred to a joint meet-
ing of the Council and Planning Commission, Commission reaffirm-
ing recommendation to approve, read again on December 13 and
delayed because of procedural Question, was read by Council
bill number and title only, there beinq no Council member
present requesting that it be read in full.
Mr. Haws raised a procedural auestion. He noted his opposition to the
rezoning based upon the facts and wanted to make a single motion that
would resolve the issue. He asked whether, if he were to move to deny
and the motion passed, the matter would be concluded. Joyce Benjamin,
assistant city attorney, affirmed that would be the result for one year,
at which time the applicant could reapply for a zone change. In response
to a Question from Mr. Bradley, Mr. Haws noted that last time the Council
was deadlocked in a tie vote the motion was ruled to have failed. Mr.
Haws restated his Question that if he moved to approve the Council bill
and it failed, would the matter be concluded. Again the attorney affirmed
the earlier rulinq.
I -~ Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Murray that findings supporting the zone
change as set out in the Planning Commission Staff Notes of July 26, 1976,
be adopted by reference thereto; and that the bill be approved and given
fi na 1 pa ssage.
Mr. Haws noted he was goinQ to vote against the motion. Mr. Bradley also
expressed his intention to vote against the motion because he felt approval
of the zone change would deviate from the Council's policy to refuse to
extend commercial development further on south Willamette. He considered
this request to extend the zoning a major deviation from the policy and felt
that a thorough study of the impact of such a policy change should be made
before any rezoning occurred. He noted he was uncertain how he would vote
on the matter following such a study. Mr. Hamel noted the request was not
adding any new businesses to the area but rather was merely removing a house
which the applicant owned to allow the business to expand. Mr. Ha ws fe 1 t
there was some Quandary about the deqree of "public need" demonstrated in
this matter. He felt there were times when a private need existed but
not a public need and that he did not see a public need in this instance.
e
IoILf
~.....; r\ 1 t + r.. ~ 1 J I r") n J"7 L ('\
"
Mr. Murray expressed his feeling that a public need had been demon-
strated because the improvements would enhance ingress and egress .
from the property in an area that has historical traffic problems.
This improvement constituted the sufficient public need in his
judgment. Mr. Bradl ey noted the probl em of youngsters "draggi ng the
gut" on weekends and hoped that the committee studying that issue
would come up with recommendations that would have relevance to the
proposed zone change. He said that, if the matter were pelayed until
that committee's report, the Council could have additional guidance
in this matter. He felt a decision on the merits of the matter "tonight"
would be without all the information the Council could have. Mr.
Haws noted his disagreement with Mr. Bradley and said the applicant
had an opportunity to return in a year if there was a case to be made
for the public need. Mr. Hamel noted the A & W stand had been at that
intersection for many years prior to the weekend traffic problem and
that only a very small percentage of the weekend drivers patronized
the business establishment.
President Keller noted the recent improvements to the intersection of
29th Avenue and Willamette had greatly alleviated the problem. He di d
not understand how a denial of this application would improve the weekend
problems on Willamette. He concurred with Mr. Murray that public need
could be defined to include this zone change and that he was going to
support the motion. Mrs. Shirey noted that when the matter was initially
presented to the Council she felt inclined to support the matter recog-
nizing the financial need of the applicant to remain competitive with
other businesses in the area. She has since concluded, however, that ~-
the impact of the commercial expansion upon the adjoining residential
properties is too serious and that the zone change should therefore
be denied.
Vote was taken on the motion as stated. Motion failed, Council members
Keller, Murray, and Hamel voting aye, and Council members Haws, Bradley,
and Shirey voting nay.
Council Bill No. 1302--Levying assessments for paving, sanitary

read by Council bill number and title only, there being no

e Manaqer noted these amendments to City Code 2.896 were necessary to
implement the intent of the existing collective bargaining provisions
of the municipal code. Union representatives had been consulted and
concurred in the amendments which modify the code to allow the parties
to negotiate the cost of arbitration. He noted it was the intent of
the amendment to remain within the perameters of the original code
provisions.
Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Murray that the bill be read the second
time by council bill number only, with unanimous consent of the Council,
and that enactment be considered at this time. Motion carried unanimously

IV. Resolutions
Resolution ~ID. 2603--Approving charter and recognizing Southwest
Hills Neighborhood Organization was read by
number and title.
Mr. 8radley requested to review the copy of Resolution 2603 and asked if
- the Council would support including within the motion a requirement that
within 60, 90, or 120 days the neighborhood organization return with a
name change to avoid confusion with the existing South Hills Neighborhood
Organization. Mr. Murray indicated he was operating on the assumption that
the Southwest Hills Neighborhood Organization leadership understood from
Io/b Minutes 12/20/76 -- 11
,
the committee-of-the-who1e meeting that there was a need to select a ne\'{ .
name for the organization and that they would accomplish that task as soon
as possible. He saw no reason to impose a deadline or other strict rules.
Mr. Bradley expressed his desire to only reflect within the body of the
Resolution the intent of the committee-of-the-who1e meeting requiring a
name change.
Mr. Bradley moved seconded by Mr. Murray that Resolution 2603 be amended
to instruct the Southwest Hills Neighborhood Association to work out a
name change with the existing South Hills Neighborhood Association, the
name change to occur within a reasonable period of time.
Mrs. Shirey felt this amendment was an unnecessary step in light of the
responsive leadership in the Southwest Hills Neighborhood Organization.
Mr. Keller concurred in Mrs. Shirey's feelings.
Vote was taken on the motion as stated which failed, council members
Hamel, Murray and Bradley voting aye, and council members Keller, Shirey,
