AN ORDINANCE AUTHoRI~ING THE INSTITUTION OF
PROCEEDINGS IN EMINENT DOMAIN FOR THE ACQUI-
SITION BY CONDEMNATIoN of PROPERTY FOR PARR
LAND;
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that:
mhe City has authority under provisions of the City Charter
and applicable state law to institute proceedings in eminent domain
far the acquisition by condemnation of private property within and
without its corporate limits for the purpose of public parks.
By Resolution No. 2468 adopted by the Common Council on Decem-
ber 22, 1975, the Bethel Danebo Neighborhood Refinement Plan was
adopted. This Refinement Plan recommends generally that the acqui-
sition of park land in Bethel-Danebo should receive a city-wide
priority and specifically that park land north of Barger Drive be
acquired to serve that somewhat isolated area.
At a special election held within the City on June 26, 1979,
a measure was referred to and approved by the voters authorizing
the Common Council to issue general obligation bonds in the amount
of $4,0~~,404 to acquire land for expanding the City's park and
recreational facilities and preserving the South Hills Ridgeline.
The property more particularly described on Exhibit "A" hereto
is within the area in which the Bethel-Danebo Neighborhood Refine-
ment Plan recommends that acquisitions of land be made.
The policies and goals of the Bethel-Danebo Neighborhood Re-
finement Plan and the directive of the voters of the City can best
be met by the acquisition of the real property described on Exhibit
ordinance - 1
1896'!
"A" hereto.

and testimony before the Council,
