MINUTES EUGENE CITY COUNCIL ., August 2, 1978 Adjourned meeting from July 26, 1978, of the City Council of the City of Eugene, Oregon, was called to order by His Honor Mayor Gus Keller at 12 noon on August 2, 1978, King's Table, Oakway Mall, with the following Council members present: Eric Haws Ray Bradley, Jack Delay, Scott Lieuallen, Brian Obie, and Betty Smith; Councilors D. W. Hamel and Tom Williams were absent. I. Items from Mayor and Council A. Recognition of Alice Rutter--Mayor Keller acknowledged Ms. Rutter's resignation as Community Relations Director. He noted she had been a very fine and special person with whom to work, that she was a hard working and diligent person. He was proud to have had the association with her and thanked her, on behalf of the Council, for her fine efforts. B. Air Quality--Memo distributed Mr. Delay reviewed for Council the memo involving two major issues: broadening the scope of the Willamette Valley airshed and consideration of a growth-increment program. Mr. Delay moved, seconded by Mr. Lieuallen, that the Eugene e City Council encourage the Environmental Quality Commission, Department of Environmental Quality, Air Quality Maintenance Area Citizens Advisory Committee, Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority, and other comparable bodies in the Willamette Valley to more fully explore the nature of the Will~mette Valley airshed. In particular, Council is concerned that any control strategies based entirely on sources inside arbitrarily defined portions of that airshed are destined to failure. There is further concern that until more is known about the conditions in the larger airshed and the transport characteristics of its meteorology, this community and others in the valley may be making planning decisions which are counterproductive in the long run. The Council also urges other jurisdictions to consider similar positions to aid in promoting a better under- standing of our common problems in the Willamette Valley airshed. The motion passed unanimously. Mr. Delay moved, seconded by Mr. Lieuallen, that the Eugene City Council recommend that the AQMA Citizens Advisory Committee incorporate a growth increment into the control strategies that are developed. Such an increment should provide for new or expanded sources to locate in the area if they meet local, State, and Federal regulations. Mr. Obie requested that Mr. Delay explain what would happen if the AQMA should or should not adopt a growth-increment program. Mr. Delay e explained that at present an industry wishing to change from 8/2/78--1 5'+0 - -- -.- - - . one kind of material to another, or change the rate of production, which might create greater emissions than their license allows . under the current schedule, might have to adopt an offset policy or acquire rights to emission. This could be done by paving grounds to reduce dust or perhaps acquiring a smaller operation and shutting it down to acquire those rights to emission. With a growth-increment program, the total emissions in the area would be reduced to a level that more new facilities would be allowed without a reduction of their own rights to emission. It woul d allow a more flexible planning tool. However, adoption of a growth- increment plan would raise a new set of issues as to who plans and manages the pollution-carrying capacity of the airshed. He said by targeting and reducing the pollution amounts in the airshed, growth of industry would be allowed. Vote was taken on the motion, which carried unanimously. C. Tri-Agency Dog Authority--Mr. Bradley said the Executive Director had submitted his resignation. The Policy Board will meet Friday, August 4, at 12 noon in the Council Chambers to discuss the Tri- Agency and consideration of an interim director. D. Scobert Litigation--Mr. Obie noted receipt of a letter regarding litigation on the Scobert property and requested staff respond to Council . Assi stant Manager sai d staff was currently checking on a statement regarding financing, noting that Ed Smith, Parks Director, indicated financing of the project was still the same. Assistant Manager will verify that. He also expressed some concern that an e attorney in litigation with the City was circumventing the City Attorney's office to correspond with Council. He noted staff would respond and keep Council updated. E. Civic Center Project--Assistant Manager noted Council's receipt of the City Attorney's opinion regarding the latest ballot title request for rescinding the City's authority to issue bonds for the Civic Center Project. F. Cable TV Commission Appointments--Memo distributed. Assistant Manager reviewed the memo requesting that Carol Baker, who is replacing Alice Rutter, be appointed to the Commission. Mr. Obie moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, to appoint Carol Baker to the TV Commission. Motion carried unanimously. G. Field Burning--Terry Smith, Public Works Department, technology coordi- nator for field burning, gave an update on the status of field burning. He said on July 11 a 30-minute field-burning violation of the 13-hour nephelometer standard was recorded. The data from the high-volume particulate samplers and the fine-particulate samplers had been analyzed and providea additional information about slash intrusion which followed. He reported that on July 10 before the field burning intrusion, the readings at the Eugene site showed 42 micrograms per -. 8/2/78--2 51f1 l - . cubic meter. On the 11th, the increase was to 53, with slash - intrusions on the 12th pushing it to 68, and slash intrusions peaked on the 13th at 100. In Springfield, the high-volume ratings started at 42; however, on the day of field-burning intrusion it went to 83, then jumped to 100 on the 12th as a result of the slash burning~ then topped out at 130 on the 13th. However, neither of the high readings exceeded the 24-hour secondary standard of 150, but would contribute to the high annual concentration. Measurement of fine particulates below 2-1/2 microns in the same period went from 7 to 43 in Eugene and 6 to 36 in Springfield. He noted that this was a very high ratio, a six-fold increase in the small, easily inhaled pollution particles contributing to health hazards. Normal ratios are ten to one or six to one, comparing small particulates to large particulates. At the worst of the intrusion, the ratios were about one to two. These data support the earlier report about the possible impact of intrusion on concentration of particulate caused by both field and slash burning. The recent intrusions on July 27 and 28 have not been processed through the computer. However, at the Eugene site, the nephelometer readings showed six hours of violation. These high readings corres- pond to about a two-mile visibility. Those are very high levels and certainly the worst this year. He noted there was a problem with the nephelometer paper-feeding mechanism at the Springfield site, as the equipment is unreliable e resulting from the State's attempt to maintain the lowest expenditure level possible. However, the LRAPA staff has been working diligently to get the equipment to operate consistently, and there were hopes the problem was permanently corrected. Until the data from the Springfield site has been recorded, it will not be known how much additional violation of the 13-hour standard resulted from the recent intrusion; it appears that about half of the 13 hours remain. The standard of 13 hours violation before August 15 would result in seed growers being allowed to burn only 150,UOO acres. Mr. Smith noted the emission-testing program by DEQ is not producing as well as hoped due to inexperience of the crew and some equipment being destroyed in burning tests, which resulted in delays. The pro- gram is being run to determine how much and what types of emissions result from different types of fires, ignition techniques, moisture content, and grass species. Some concern was expressed about the DEQ's data-gathering program. The data to be used to provide chemical elements balance measure- ments is not being collected although, until recently, the DEQ had assured the City this would be done. The information is signi- ficant in determining the impact of field burning. These concerns had been outlined in a memo to the EQC on May 22, but it now appears the DEQ staff cannot include collection of the data in their present workload. - 8/2/78--3 S~~ . Preliminary results with experimental burning techniques have been mixed. with the results of backfiring not very encouraging. However, the experiments with strip lighting have been positive. With some - refinement. it appears this technique may be a useful tool. Experi- ments have been limited, and additional experimental burning will be necessary before a final judgment can be made. One of the standards accepted by EQC was that to August 15 there would be no burning of seed fields ~hat contained more than 12 percent moisture. DEQ moisture-content testing appears to be positive. A simple in-field manual IIcrackle test." to determine moisture content. appears practical. This will allow growers to test the moisture content without the difficulty or expense of sophisticated measuring devices. Mr. Smith said next week there would be an increase in aircraft traffic over the valley as the EPA-equipped airplane will be in the area, with DEQ aircraft and helicopter to conduct heavy samplings. Meteorological and tracer studies will be part of the program. The tracer study will attempt to identify the changing character- istics of smoke plumes. The meterological study will attempt to identify factors affecting smoke transport. On the ground. the experimental burning crews will be doing more work on burning techniques. and emission testing is expected to again be underway. I In response to Mayor Kell er' s concern about the use of DEQ IS data- gathering program for the chemical-element balance measurement, Assistant Manager said staff had indicated through the discussion e with DEQ the need for adequate staffing and equipment. and had been assured by DEQ this would be provided. However. it was recognized the DEQ staff had a tremendous workload. Mayor Keller requested the City's concern be relayed to the DEQ once again about the col- lection of these data. II. Request from Councilor Lieuallen Re: Council Position on Use of Herbicides Containing TCDD--Memo distributed. Mr. Lieuallen said the memo outlines some concerns~ data available, and what various agencies are doing about the problem. He clarified for Council that the herbicides are those which are contaminated by dioxin, a material which is an unwanted but inherent by-product of producing herbicides. He said EPA was now studying a 2,4,5-T to determine the toxicity of dioxin and whether or not it exceeds the risk factor. He said there was a question of whether EPA should suspend the use of this herbicide until the study is completed. There will be a hearing before the State Board of Forestry Thursday and Friday, August 3 and 4, on pro- posed rules regarding the use of this herbicide. Two proposals to be made at that hearing would be: 1) From Governor Straub, that there is a need for a buffer strip between the areas sprayed and streams; and in addition, a need to post the area for a specific period of time before spraying is done; and 2) A proposal from the Oregon Environmental Council to support a 200-foot buffer strip with longer posting before, and main- tained six months after, an area was sprayed. e 8/2/78--4 SLl3 I . He noted these rules would apply to all lands under Forestry juris- diction. He said this was possibly the most toxic substance that has e ever been produced and reviewed the various documented health effects in humans believed to be a result of herbicide contamination. He noted the hazard that the use of dioxin herbicides posed to the watershed. Susequently, a BLM study has suggested rather conclusively it is impossible to keep herbicides out of the water systems. He expressed a more pressing concern of direct contact to persons moving through the woods. Mr. Lieuallen moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, that the Council adopt the following statement to transmit to the Forestry hearings: II It is of grave concern to thi s City Council that the potential usage of dioxin-containing herbicides near the McKenzie River poses an unnecessary threat to the citizens of Eugene due to possible contamination of our drinking water. Therefore, it is the expressed opinion of this City Council that, in light of what is now known about the almost unmatched toxicity of 2,4,5-T, and what is not known about its precice mode of action and its long-term effects on human beings, that watersheds which are direct supply for human consumption should not be managed with this herbicide or any others which contain TCDD. Further, that the above statement be approved and forwarded to the State Board of Forestry and EPA.II Mr. Lieuallen further explained the Oregon Environmental Council IS (OEC) e proposal and requested Council support his motion along with the OECls position. Mr. Obie said he had concerns supporting the motion involving the total watershed area without knowing what alternatives there might be. Mr. Lieuallen said alternative methods for managing forests other than use of sprays had included manual clearance. However, those studies are in progress and the success is not yet known. He noted that if land were clear-cut and not attended to for ten years, it would be impossible to manage it manually. However, if it were done within two or three years after clear cutting, manual management could be used. Furthermore, he felt EPA would conclude the dioxin is so toxic that he would like a recommendation to EPA to suspend use of dioxin until EPA studies have been concluded and that Council recognize the concern, not only for the watershed, but for direct contact by persons. Mr. Obie noted that Mr. Lieuallen's motion did not speak to that. Mr. Delay said that the motion directs itself to the concerns raised in the memo about whether dioxin should be used to manage brush within areas where it would come into contact with the watershed. He felt a separate motion might be needed before supporting practices regarding applying the herbicides. Mr. Obie said he would like to postpone voting on the motion until public input could be received by Council and more information could be obtained regarding the effects of andlor alternatives to total abolition of this herbicide. Mr. lieuallen said he hoped Council - . 8/2/78--5 5't't . would take some position supporting EOC before the hearings are held by the State Forestry Board this week. He said there was evidence of the high toxicity of the herbicide and resulting harm to people moving tit around in areas which have been sprayed. He did not object to hearing public testimony about possible alternatives. Mr. Lieuallen, with concurrence of the second, withdrew his former motion. Mr. Lieuallen then listed the proposal of the Oregon Environmental Council which he hoped Council would support: 1. Prior notice of 21 days to all land owners and residents within one mile, all owners of water rights within five miles, and all owners of municipal water supplies within 50 miles; 2. Prior notice of 21 days and six-months subsequent notice posted on all roads and points of entry and every 100 feet along roads and trails traversing the sprayed areas; 3. Prior notice of 21 days in newspapers within 50 miles; 4. Notice must include health hazards; 5. That a 200-foot buffer strip must be maintained between all Class 1 streams, roads, and trails. Mr. Lieuallen moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, to support the e OEC recommendations and forward the Council statement to the State Board of Forestry. In subsequent Council discussion there was some concern expressed about posting every 100 feet on a trail or road. It was cited as being unnecessary and impractical. Mr. Lieuallen thought those kinds of rules would become moot as the point was reached where no dioxins were used. Mr. Obie moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, to amend the motion to de 1 ete the reference to II every 100 feet pos ti ng. II Motion carried with all Councilors present voting aye, except Mr. Bradley and Mr. Haws voting no. Vote was taken on the main motion which carried unanimously. It was determined the Council IS position would be relayed to the Oregon State Board of Forestry by telephone in time for the hearings Thursday and Fri day. e 8/2/78--6 I 5'i5 . Ill. Public Hearing Re: Street and Easement Vacations - Unanimously recommended by the Planning Commission on April 24 and May 22, 1978. Assistant Manager noted that C.B. 1731, involving an easement vacation on Dillard Road, south to Fox Hollow, should be held over one month because of negotiations over public compensation. Public hearing was held with no testimony presented. C.B. 1731--Authorizing easement vacation located from Dillard Road south to Fox Hollow Road, west of the intersection of the two roads (Welch-Nesbitt)(EV 78-3), was read by council bill number and title only. Mr. Haws moved, seconded by Ms. Smith, to hold the council bill over to Council meeting September 6. Motion carried unanimously. C.B. 1729--Authorizing street vacation, that portion located between Danebo Street and Candlelight Drive, and retaining public utility easement through the area (Wilder)(SV 78-10) was read by number and title only, there being no Councilor presently requesting it be read in full. Mr. Bradley moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, 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 and the bill was read the second time by council bill number only. Mr. Bradley moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, that the bill be approved and given final passage. Roll call vote. All Councilors present voting aye, the bill was declared passed and numbered 18241. ~ C.B. 1730--Authorizing easement vacation located south of Bell Avenue, between Davis Street and Wellington Street, retaining 20- foot wide substitute easement for storm sewer east side of Tax Lot 700 (Outka)(EV 78-2), was read by number and title only, there being no Councilor presently requesting it be read in full. Mr. Bradley moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, 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 and the bill was read the second time by council bill number only. Mr. Bradley moved, seconded by Mr. Delay, that the bill be approved and given final passage. Roll call vote. All Councilors present voting aye, the bill was declared passed and numbered 18242. e o/2/7tl--l 5~ - I . I I I IV. Improvement Petitions Assistant Manager said there was some testimony to be taken for Reso- - lution 2975 regarding paving on Laurel Hill Drive. J. W. McCracken, Jr., 975 Oak, attorney representing Harriet Lowe, opposed Council's passage of the resolution. He raised the question of whether or not the signature on the petition of James Potterf was valid. He said Mr. Potterf would testify he had not signed the petition. If that were true, Mr. McCracken felt there probably were insignificant I signatures for the petition to be valid. Second, he felt if the street were widened to 36 feet it would require approximately four feet of Mrs. Lowe's property which could only be obtained by the City through the use of eminent domain. For these two reasons, he asked that the resolution be discontinued until it can be determined whether or not the petition is adequate. James Potterf, 2420 Laurel Hill Drive, testified he did not sign the petition. He said he did not want the street improvement and suggested the development could have access to the east. He understood that the deeded right-of-way on the street is 28 feet. If the City were to improve it to 36 feet, it would require additional right-of-way from his property, and he said he would not allow that to happen. He noted also, as a result of widening the street, it would come right up to Mrs. Lowe's front porch. He also noted a loss of many trees along the right-of-way, saying he would lose approximately five large ones on his property. He did not believe there was a benefit for the property owners for street development. He suggested the developers use the e existing right-of-way and incur the costs for the development. Howard Speer, 835 East Park, was an attorney representing Idea Builders, the developers of the property and petitioners for street improvement. Regarding Mr. Potterf's signature on the petition, he presented to Council a copy of the petition in which it showed each name was printed with a space below it for a signature. He said with Council's inspec- tion of the petition, they would find the name had been printed but no signature had been obtained from Mr. Potterf. It was his under- standing it was not necessary for all property owners on a street to concur with an initiative petition, but rather that could be done by even just one property owner. With the use of a map, he showed the proposed development and the reason for requested street improvement. He said the Planning Department had approved the subdivision for Judkins Heights which would be a 27-acre parcel developed into 102 single-family lots. One condition of the approval for the subdi- vision was that a petition for street improvement of Laurel Hill Drive be submitted to the City. This was primarily at the concern of the Laurel Hill neighborhood association to keep traffic off of other streets in the area. He said the petition had 57.7 percent of the affected property owners who wished improvement. He felt the reason for objection to the petition was because of the cost. He felt there was public need for the improvement and a need for single- family dwelling lots within the City. The plan was in conformance with the 1990 Plan and had been approved by the Planning Department. e He and Mr. Dean Greenwood were available to answer questions. 8/2/78--8 5~1 I . Assistant Manager circulated the petition and a map showing the e area in question. He noted for Council the street improvement petition had come as a request from the Laurel Hill Valley neighborhood asso- ciation's concerns regarding use of Augusta and Riverview streets. Improvement of Laurel Hill Drive would relieve that traffic situation. The improvement petition signatures would reach approximately 50 percent consent without Mr. Potterfls signature. In response to a question from Mr. Haws, Assistant Manager said the Council could initiate such a petition without any signatures, but it had not done so in its normal process. However, if there were mitigating circumstances for improvement of the street, Council could initiate such a petition. He noted the traffic increase as a result of the proposed development could be cited as s~ch a circumstance. Mrs. Smith left the meeting. In response to a question from Mr. Delay, Mr. Allen said the sewers to serve the subdivision are in order, and the only way they could be designed would be to the west. The Council IS initiating process by passing the resolution at this time would result in answers to questions that cannot be answered today. He noted perhaps the street may be only 24 to 28 feet wide in order to save some of the trees in the area. Questions about the width of the street, saving the trees, use of the street as an interim facility during building of the subdivision, and the sewer design, would be answered by the initiating of this process today. He noted there would be a public hearing after e the design problems have been worked out, at the time of recommendation for awarding the contract. He also noted the percentage of signatures on a petition is not the problem, as Council could decide whether or not it needs the improvement with or without property owners' signatures. Assistant Manager added that the staff would do the complete design work so the property owners could see how the improvement would actually affect them, and staff could also determine whether or not there would be a right-of-way problem after the process had been initiated. Property owners could express their concerns at the City Council hearing before the contracts were awarded. This would also allow more information regarding the certainty of costs involved. Mr. Obie felt uncomfortable with moving ahead and requested the reso- lution be held over. His concerns regarded the increase of traffic by this development, although he saw the need for arterial movement, but he questioned how it would be most appropriately accomplished. He wondered if it might be possible that the developer who would be creating the traffic problem might be the person to pay for the street improvements. Mr. Haws reminded Council it was simply initiating the process at this time, so answers to the questions that had been raised could be avail- able. He noted if there were going to be a subdivision, it would necessitate a street improvement. Mr. Obie again expressed concern - of the financial cost to the City doing the engineering and development of the street design. Assistant Manager reminded Council this was a 8/2/78--Y 5~8 . public right-of-way, and the City would normally be making those improvements. He said the question before Council was whether or - not to require the street improvement because of the subdivision. The subdivision could be allowed to be developed, but he noted there would be the attendant problems of dust in the area along with the increased traffic from the 100 residential lots. He noted this was an ongoing dilemma whenever any subdivision was developed on a sub- standard street. Jim Saul, Planner, said the subdivision had been approved, and in working with the Laurel Hill Citizens Association and their desire for street patterns in the area, one condition of the approval had been for improvement of Laurel Hill Drive. In regard to the 50 percent petition signers, Mr. Delay said if there were 50 percent who wanted it done, then Council normally would approve. He said there are obviously other reasons why it should be done. He noted the basic policy of abutting property owners paying for street improvements. He did not think Council should change that policy now. He noted also there would be a time for pUblic hearing when more con- crete answers were available. He also noted Council may have to become more active about residential street improvements in order to reduce the pollution by eliminating the dust and mud carryout problems. He felt there were issues to be considered in street improvements other than resistance from property owners, noting there will always be resistance. He felt it necessary for the City to follow its current policy. e Res. No. 2975--Authorizing initiating process for street paving on Laurel Hill Drive from the access of the Glenwood interchange at Interstate 5 to the south boundary of Judkins Heights Subdivision (1616), was read by number and title.
