EUGENE CITY COUNCIL
- October 10, 1977
Regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Eugene. Oregon was called
to order by His Honor Mayor Gus Keller at 7:30 p.m. October 10, 1977, in the
Council Chambers, with the following Councilors present: Eric Haws, D. W. Hamel,
Jack Delay, Scott Lieua11en, Brian Obie, and Betty Smith. Council ors Tom
Williams and Ray Bradley were absent.
I-A-l 1. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Amending Section 4.745 of City Code re: Prostitution
Manager said this item had been discussed at length at previous
Wednesday meetings and had been held for action at this time to allow
further discussion and public input. The ordinance had come about
because of increasing problems of prostitution on the streets and
particularly because of a younger and younger group of females under
the age of 18 being involved. He noted the passage of a similar
ordinance in Portland about two years ago, with the resulting enforce-
ment of that ordinance perhaps encouraging the prostitutes to move to
Eugene. The ordinance sets up standards for police arrest of all
persons engaged in soliciting activity. It allows in effect for
e arrest, after observation of repeated action~ and it will no longer be
necessary for the use of police officers as ecoys to arrest the ,
johns. Other reasons for the presentation of this ordinance were the
increased activity being disruptive to patrons in the downtown area,
and substantial savings in police resources by enforcement under the
new ordinance. However, he noted opponents to the ordinance contend
possible discrimination against prostitutes as against johns and
pimps; fear of police harrassment to hitchhikers and loiterers; and
possible infringement of civil rights of minorities and nonestablish-
ment groups.
Public hearing was opened.
Navarre Davis, 1800 Cal Young, Chairman of the Downtown Development
Board, said his group favored passage of the ordinance as presented.
As a business owner in the downtown area and as a citizen of the
community, he felt the City Council needed to recognize that there is
a problem. He cited it as being offensive to customers, to those who
work in the area, and a general blight on the entire community. He
felt there was no legislation which would completely eliminate the
problem, but this ordinance was a step in the right direction. He
complimented the Eugene Police Department and Chief Brooks for the
recent action taken in cleaning up the mall area. He felt the ordi-
nance was reasonable. fair, and adequate in that it will help eli-
minate the prostitution problem.

Vince Farina, 1407 East 21st, noted Eugene was growing, and as the city
grows, prostitution would increase, citing how rapidly the problem had
grown over the past year or so. He felt the present ordinance .
would present a first step toward solving the problem of prostitution.
He felt those opposing the ordinance should at least give it a
chance, noting Council could make changes in the future if the
ordinance did not work out. He urged City Council to consider favor-
able passage of the ordinance.
Ray McIver, 1710 Elanco, Mall Manager, noted the Eugene Downtown
Association had been supporters of such an ordinance since before
the writing of this present Eugene ordinance, saying they were
aware of such an ordinance in Seattle and Portland. The EDA felt the
ordinance had gone through a constitutional test and addressed the
prostitution problem. ' He said, to date, he had no negative input from
EDA, after mailing to the entire membership the substance of the
ordinance. Thus the EDA is a strong supporter and asked Council to
adopt.
Dr. Mary Crumbaker, Eugene Business College, 383 East 11th Avenue,
spoke in the capacity of an educator, member of the Eugene Business
& Professional Women's Association, Women's Christian Temperance Union,
and as a private citizen. She said many students to her college came
from outside the Eugene area and had to use the bus terminal at 10th
and Overpark. There had been several unfortunate incidents before the
recent action in August to clean up prostitutes on the mall. She
noted also several older adults wanted to attend college but were
afraid to go through that area on the bus terminals. She also expressed e
concern for the young people involved in this activity and felt if
there were some restraints, then perhaps those young people would find
better ways of living.
Terese Engelmann, 1910 Fairmount Boulevard, Vice President of the
Women's Commission, said the Commission supported Section 3 of the
present ordinance but was very opposed to Section 2. The main reason
for opposition was the fear that it gave too much discretion to the
police and the Police Department for selective enforcement., She noted
the problem of hitchhikers, students passing out literature or attempt-
ing to talk to friends, and women laughing or looking at men as
possible areas for indiscriminate use of the loitering section of the
prostitution ordinance. She pointed out being accused of prostitution
is a very damaging thing in our society. One real fear was people who
might be picked up will be people who do not have the appearance or
behavior to conform to the downtown merchant's standards. She noted
it was just a cosmetic cleaner, driving the women off the streets, but
those women would still be forced to combine with pimps to work even
harder. She felt the ordinance would not get to the heart of the
problem, but would simply clear the streets and not necessarily clear
up prostitution. She also questioned whether it was possible to stop
prostitution, noting perhaps it can be curbed but cannot be stopped.
e

Valarie S~ker, 860 East 23rd, opposed the ordinance. She often
felt harrassed by the police on the mall and felt the ordinance
e was drawn up to favor just the businessmen. She felt very far from
the Eugene businessmen, noting if she were loitering, reading, or
hitchhiking, she should be able to be on the mall as much as anyone
else without being questioned for her motives for being there.
Public hearing was closed, there being no further testimony
presented.
Ms. Smith asked Chief Brooks to respond to the question of women
hitchhiking and how the Police Department would handle that problem.
Chief Brooks said procedures would be established for police officers
to follow, and the police officer would know a young women was engaged
in prostitution before she was stopped on the street. In regard to
the concern about hitchhiking, he felt those concerns were valid. He
noted since the recent action by the Police Department on August 29,
before that time and since that time, the Police Department has not
accosted hitchhikers on the mall. He said it was not how a person
looked that identified her as a prostitute, it is what that person is
doing. There would be procedural guidelines to be used by the police
officers in following this ordinance, the police officer would have to
see repeated actions and observe those things that prostitutes do.
Ms. Smith had asked for ages of the young women involved in prosti-
tution and understood the average was around 20, noting there could be
many females 14, 15, and 16 years of age involved. Chief Brooks
e replied that since August 29, that there had been no arrests for
prostitution. From January to August 29, 41 arrests had been made
involving 22 girls, with the average age 20-1/2. He said over 90
percent of those young women were local residents.
Mr. lieuallen said, as he recalled, there had been several objectives
in mind in writing this ordinance: 1) cosmetic action to make the
mall more attractive; and 2) to rid the city of the associated crimi-
nal activity. He asked Chief Brooks to review for Council what some
of those criminal activities were and how the ordinance would affect
them; and also to address the concern that if the prosititutes were
not on the streets, but go elsewhere such as expensive motels and
hotels around the area, whether criminal activity involved would be
more expensive. Chief Brooks responded that when prostitution was
left uncontrolled, it brings in narcotics, an increase in robberies
and assaults, extortion, corruption of public officials, and murder.
As far as where the prostitution would go, he said he was not so naive
as to say all prostitution problems in Eugene would be totally elimi-
nated. He said the younger females might find some other employment
activity, but those who have chosen a life of prostitution would have
to find another place to go. He felt they would probably go to
another town.
e

--. -
Mr. Lieuallen wondered, assuming that a certain amount of prostitution
goes on that is not visible on the streets, whether the same kind
of crimi nal acti vi ty W*iS associated wi th that. Chief Brooks repli ed e
yes, but in considerably less amounts. He said where prostitution
is controlled, it reduces the prostitution problem by 75 percent
or more, getting to a size more easily controlled.
Mr. Delay said the prostitution ordinance had been discussed several
times, with the potential for abuse seeming to be the main con-
cern. Chief Brooks had indicated he would establish proper pro-
cedures to eliminate possible harassment and selective abuse. Mr.
Delay wondered if, in fact, such procedural guidelines are good
police practices, whether those guidelines could be accommodated by
tightening the language and adding procedural guidelines to the
ordinance. Chief Brooks said he would prefer to set up procedures
immediately and wondered about writing procedures into the law. He
said the established procedures would be reviewed by the Prosecutors
Office, the City Manager, and the Council. He noted also that all
information coming to the Police Department from citizens or other
groups would go to a unit that would monitor the prostitution problem.
Mr. Delay said his real concern was a question of whether or not
Chief Brooks could be comfortable with tighter procedural wording
in the ordinance, if that were possible. Chief Brooks said he would
have to see the language and then discuss it with the prosecuter
before he could give a concrete answer. Mr. Delay then asked the
City Attorney if it were possible to accommodate in the ordinance the
areas in which there might definitely be a problem, i.e~, the poten- e
tial for abuse. He wondered if it might be possible to do a better
job of more accurately defining what would be meant by "repeated" or
engaging in soliciting. Mr. Long replied there was evidently an
assumption that the present ordinance is in some respects not effec-
tive. He reiterated the previously made statements of claims of a
ordinance being arbitrarily enforced as being old claims. He noted,
again, the Portland prostitution ordinance had been dealt with in
courts and upheld as being legal, constitutional, and not unduly
susceptible to being arbitrarily enforced. He also noted if it were
abused, there were consequences within the Police Department to deal
with police officers. Mr. Delay said he understood the language as
meeting the minimum standards of testability for vagueness. He
wondered, however, if the City Attorney felt more restrictive language
could be accommodated without much difficulty. Mr. Long replied with
a qualified yes, noting more restrictive language would possibly mean
that the ordinance would be less effective.
C. B. 1548--Concerning prostitution; amending Section 4.745 of City
Code 1971, and declaring an emergency, was read by council
bill number and title only, there being no Council member
present requesting that it be read in full.
e
10/10/77--4
-,,,1..,
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, that the bill be read
e the second time by council bill number only, with unanimous
consent of the Council, and that enactment be considered at
this time.
Mr. Lieuallen expressed having concern with the present ordinance,
yet wanting to see action taken to deal with the growing problem.
He noted the side effects were going to affect his part of town,
yet if burglaries and robberies were associated with prostitution,
then those would be city-wide problems. He felt a better ordinance
could be written. He noted recent action by the Police Department was
extremely effective and there had been no arrests since that time. He
felt it would be possible to rely on that kind of action until Council
could consider a better ordinance. He also wanted more statistics
regarding what kind of activity accompanies the prostitution problem,
and questioned if eliminating prostitution would solve these related
problems. He also questioned the statement that if the ordinance were
enacted and if it were abused, it could later be repealed. He felt it
would be better to take more time to write a better ordinance now. In
regard to Mr. Long's comment that if the ordinance were written more
restrictively it would render it less effective, and if Council were
talking about an ordinance that would decrease in effectiveness, he
felt there was not a strong argument for going ahead as there was
already police action which could effectively resolve the problem. He
also was not sure he wanted to enact an ordinance that was barely
constitutional. He requested Council to consider delaying action,
saying there was obviously a mechanism within the Police Depart-
e ment to deal with the problem effectively in the interim.
Mr. Delay understood the Council was basically dealing with two
aspects of the problem: 1) lack of necessity for use of police
officers for solicitation and entrapment; and 2) the increase savings
in time and resources. However, on the negative side, he cited the
potential for selective enforcement and harrassment, with accidental
arrest and embarrassing situations; and putting more pressure on the
prostitute but not being creative enough to deal with the problem of
the johns. He felt the problematic situation on the mall had been
eliminated and he saw the question now being one of savings of re-
sources and time versus possible violation of civil rights. He felt
continued work should be done on the amendment to make the ordinance
more effective, and did not see Council was under any time pressure,
noting he felt a better ordinance could be written.
Mr. Obie said he did not see keeping the Eugene Downtown area aesthe-
tic as. the main argument for the prostitution ordinance. He noted
that Chief Brooks had been talking of 41 arrests, noting that 90
percent of those young women resided in Eugene. He felt Council had
the opportunity and obligation to cut off that career path or at least
hamper those young women following that particular career. In regard
e
10/10/77--5
1b3
to giving discretion of arrests to the Police Department, he asked if
Councilors would prefer to have that discretion given to the pimps and
prostitutes. He felt it was time Council concerned itself with the .
right of the majority of the people who live in Eugene and those
rights were being offended.
Mr. Haws said he was not convinced that Eugene should become like
Portland or Seattle. He felt the recent action by the Police Depart-
ment had been an excellent job in controlling the situation and
he encouraged the department to continue that work. However, he
was not about to trade in rights of women on the mall for economics.
Mr. Delay responded to Mr. Obie, saying keeping the mall aesthetically
pleasing was not the basis, 'but that he felt a better ordinance
should be written in terms of a more adequate definition in terms of
enforcement.
Ms. Smith noted her support of the ordinance. She did acknowledge
her concern in tenms of proceeding too quickly, noting the last effort
of the Police Department had relieved the pressures somewhat. As she
recalled, Chief Brooks had said this was an approach the Police
Department would rather not use again in terms of its cost and time to
the department. She expressed concern about the number of young
people involved in the arrests and expressed a feeling of trust in the
Police Department setting up procedures and guidelines to follow this
ordinance. She noted Council had the option to make changes in the
ordinance later. She said this is a potential problem that might grow
and increase and she was going to vote for the ordinance. -
Mr. Lieuallen mentioned a number of people were concerned about the
loitering and harassment potential. He noted those concerns were
not directed at anyone person or the current police force, but more
at the process. He felt the problem had been dealt with on a temporary
basis and Council was not under any time pressure to act immediately.
Mr. Delay said that while Council might have opportunity to make
changes in the ordinance later, he felt it best for Council to make
I its best and final decision at this time, as members have had the
opportunity to read, research, and discuss the various questions.
Mr. Lieuallen said he did not want the citizens in the community
to think Councilors were in opposition to dealing with the problem
if they did not act immediately on the ordinance.
Vote was taken on the motion, which passed with Councilors
Hamel, Obie, and Smith, voting aye; Councilors Delay, Haws,
and Lieuallen voting no; and Mayor Keller voting aye to break
the tie.
Mayor Keller said he felt questions that were raised were important,
but it was also important to realize that the Council could be creative
and also should be very careful to represent both sides. He felt this
ordinance could do so. He noted the last action of the Police Department
.
10/10/77--6

was an interim solution, but the problem still exists and Council
has to deal with it. He also noted that it was important to realize
that this was not just a downtown problem, but a problem of all 9f
~ Eugene and, therefore, action taken by the Mayor was appropriate.
Lacking unanimous consent by Council, the council bill will be held
for second reading on October 24, 1977.
1-B-1 B. Rezoning from M-2 to RG-SR property located east of Lincoln Street,
north of the Southern Pacific Railroad, south of Skinner's Butte Park
(Eugene Planning Commission)(Z 77-34)
Recommended by Planning Commission September 6, 1977, with unanimous vote.
Manager reviewed that Council had discussed the development of the
RG zoned property directly to the east. At that time, Council had
discussed land use in the area and specifically requested the Planning
Commission study the appropriateness of M-2 zoning. Based on that
Council directive, the Planning Commission initiated the proposed zone
change.
Mr. Saul reviewed the location and noted the owner had been notified
on several occasions of the recommended rezoning, and at no point
had staff or the Planning Commission had any response to the proposed
rezoning. There had been no testimony in opposition, and the Planning
Commission thus voted unanimously to rezone from M-2 to RG-SR. He
said the concerns which the Site Review Procedures were to address
were in both the minutes and the ordinance.
e No ex parte contacts or conflicts of interest were declared by
Council members.
Staff Notes and minutes were entered as part of the record by
reference thereto.
Public hearing was held with no testimony presented.
C.B. 1554--Rezoning from M-2 to RG-SR property located east of Lincoln
Street, north of the Southern Pacific Railroad, south of
Skinner's Butte Park was read by council bill number and
title only, there being no Council member present requesting it
be read in full.
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, that findings supporting
the rezoning as set out in Planning Commission's staff notes and
minutes of September 6, 1977, be adopted by reference thereto;
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. The motion carried unanimously, and the
bill was read the second time by council bill number only.
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, that the bill be approved
and given final passage. Roll call vote. All Council members
present voting aye, the bill was declared passed and numbered 18061.

1-8-2 C. Public Works Bids--opened October 4, 1977 (tabulation attached)
Don Allen, Director of Public Works, reviewed the various bids: .-
Job No. 1426, petitioned by 33 percent of the property owners to
be assessed, with suggestion to award contract to Norm Green and
Sons; Job No. 1439, petitioned by 78 percent of the property owners
to be assessed, with contract to be awarded to James A. Hill; Job
No. 1492, petitioned by 30 percent of the property owners to be
assessed with contract to be awarded to L. D. Van Over Construction.
Public hearing was held with no testimony being presented.
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, to accept low bid and
award contracts as recommended by staff. Motion carried
unanimously.
1-8-3 II. ORDINANCES FOR SECOND READING
A. Rezoning from C-2 and R-3 to MU Mixed Use properties located between
7th and 13th Avenues, extending from Washington Street to Lincoln
Street (Eugene Planning Commission)(Z 76-38)
Recommended by Eugene Planning Commission August 15, 1977. Heard
previously by Council September 26, 1977.
C.B. 1543--Rezoning properties located between 7th and 13th Avenues,
extending from Washington Street to Lincoln Street from C-2 e
and R-3 to MU Mixed Use was read by council bill number only,
there being no Council member present requesting it be read in
full.
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, that the bill be approved
and given final passage.
Mr. Obie moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, to amend the motion to
remove from consideration of zone change the property occupied
by the Lawrence Street Market and Wyatt's Tire Company on the
north side of West 11th at Lawrence Street.
Mayor Keller wondered if it were appropriate to accept such an amendment.
City Attorney replied that if the amendment were to pass, it would
result in referral back to the Planning Commission as the action would
be contrary to that recommended by the Planning Commission.
Mr. Obie felt there had not been enough consideration given to these
two pieces of property by the Planning Commission. He felt the use
on the property was appropriate for the area and a zone change would
divest the individuals of their rights to use the property as others
in the area are able to do.
Ms. Smith asked Jim Bernhard, President of the Planning Commission,
to comment. City Attorney replied that Council would have to reopen
the hearing to take specific testimony and would have to give other .
persons the same opportunity to testify. Ms. Smith redirected
10/10/77--8
1~{P
~-,
her question to staff. Jim Saul replied the Planning Commission
e had received both oral and written testimony on both properties
from the time the mixed use rezoning application had been received and
had voted to retain those properties within the mixed-use zone. In
regard to the Lawrence Street Market, he said it was at the present
time developed exactly in line with the mixed-use permit, noting a
commercial establishment on one floor and residential establishment
on the second floor. In regard to Wyatt's Tire Company, he noted it
was not different than essentially other vacant property in the
Westside area.
Ms. Smith recalled in previous discussion of the Wyatt's Tire Company,
there was concern that it was now currently not in accordance with
C-2 zoning. She wondered if it were pulled out as an exception,
could it then retain its present business. Mr. Saul replied that
the present usage is not going to be affected whether it retains C-2
or MU zoning because the primary use is not permitted in either.
Mr. Delay said after the last discussion at Council meeting, he
had visited the area and looked at the property. He noted his famil-
iarity both with the area and with the mixed use zoning being proposed.
He was convinced more than ever that this mixed-use zone was the right
way to proceed.
Mr. Obie said he felt that the proposed zone change had been put
on the map with a broad brush and then consideration was given to
each regarding the ultimate development of the area. He said even if
e the Lawrence Street Market was an exact example of good mixed use
zoning, he wondered if it would not be necessary to ask if that was
the exact use the owners of the Lawrence Street Market wanted. Mr.
Obie said if the owner should want to expand his business, he would not
be able to do so. In regard to Wyatt's Tire Company, he said long-
range plans indicated the major operation would be moved and the
remaining building would be made into a retail outlet. Based on the
present uses of those two parcels and the surrounding uses, he felt
this was a good argument for leaving them as they are zoned.
Mr. Delay felt Mr. Obie did a great disservice to the staff and
Planning Commission by stating "made with a broad brush". He said
this mixed-use zone change had been in study, research, and consider-
ation in great detail for a long time.
Vote was taken on the amendment to the motion, which passed
with Obie, Hamel, and Smith voting aye; Haws, Delay, and
Lieuallen voting no; and Mayor Keller voting aye to break the
tie.
Mayor Keller said that it appeared the majority of the people who
had concerns would receive the opportunity to express those concerns
and perhaps be treated more fairly.
.
10/10/77--9
ifol
The council bill will be referred back to a joint session of the e
Planning Commission-City Council for further review.
Mr. Haws said there were several parcels that he was concerned about
and wondered if this was the time to consider those. Mayor Keller
said those concerns could be brought before the joint meeting of
the Planning Commission and Council. Mr. Saul told Council that
everyone who testified at previous hearings would be notified of the
joint meeting.
Mr. Obie called for a point of order, saying his motion was to delete
two parcels from the main motion. He thought if the main motion
passed, then only that amended, portion would go back to the Planning
Commission. City Attorney said that would be a reasonable interpreta-
tion, but it was not the interpretation historically utilized by
Council. He said Council had consistently followed the procedure that
any action taken contrary to the Planning Commission's recommendation
would result in the matter being sent back for joint session with
the Planning Commission and Council. He noted if Council was uncomfort-
able with that interpretation, then it should consider a change,
noting City Attorney's office had recommended in the past that this
procedure might possibly be considered for change by Council.
Mr. Lieuallen expressed disappointment in the whole process. He
felt Council had made this part of town a football, noting that
property owners can never do exactly as they please as there are many
restrictions on behavior. e
1-B-7 B. Hearings Panel Report October 3, 1977 for Levying Assessments--
Minutes distributed
Manager said council bills 1538, 1546, and 1547 had been recommended
by Hearings Panel to levy assessments as proposed. However, council
bill 1537 was subject to discussion because of a right-of-way question
which could affect the amount of assessment. Stan Long, City Attorney's
Office, said with respect to council bill 1537, Council was dealing
with an assessme~t on Barger Drive which amounted to a small amount of
money, but involved a significant principal for the City. He said the
minutes of the Panel Hearing suggest that the City is mixing right-of-
way with assessments for special benefits upon a public construction.
The point to be made, \Jhethcr right or wrof1q" is Barger is [! SO-foot
wide ~treet 3nd ~houlJ be assessed on that basis. There ar~ two cases
pending now, and there has hCC'fl 'some su~~estion that the City might
nczotiate or seck to acquire right-of-way in~he future. It is the
City's position now that the City owns the right-of-way, that 50 feet,
and it would be consistent and appropriate for the Council to
take the position that Barger Drive is 50 feet wide and not 40 feet
wide. He said Council could send the report back to the Assessment
Panel or it simply could accept the report and with respect to the
Barger Drive assessment, levy the assessments as originally recommended
by staff.
Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, to accept Hearings Panel ,.
report of October 3, 1977, with respect to council bills 1538,
1546, and 1547; and with respect to council bill 1537 to levy
assessments as originally recommended by staff. Motion carried
unanimously.
