ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58-26-03
of the
City Engineer
DELEGATION TO THE TRAFFIC ENGINEERS OF THE PUBLIC
WORKS DEPARTMENT: DUTIES UNDER SECTION 5.040 THROUGH
5.055 OF THE EUGENE CODE, 1971, AND DUTIES OF TRAFFIC
ENGINEER; AND REPEALING AND REPLACING ADMINISTRATIVE
ORDER NO. 58-20-19.
The City Engineer of the City of Eugene finds that:
A. Pursuant to Administrative Order No. 58-20-18, the Executive Director of the
Public Works Department delegated to the City Engineer the authority to perform the duties and
responsibilities specifically defined as those of the City Manager in Sections 5.040, 5.045 and
5.050 of the Eugene City Code.
B. Also pursuant to Administrative Order No. 58-20-18, the Executive Director of the
Public Works Department delegated to the City Engineer the authority to perform the duties and
responsibilities specifically assigned to the Traffic Engineer by administrative orders and
administrative rules of the City.
C. Administrative Order No. 58-20-18 also authorizes the City Engineer to further
delegate the duties and responsibilities delegated therein to additional qualified City staff upon
finding it would be more efficient and in the public interest to do so.
D. On August 11, 2020, Administrative Order No. 58-20-19 was issued, subdelegating
the duties and responsibilities in Administrative Order No. 58-20-18 to the Traffic Engineer of the
Public Works Maintenance Traffic Operations Division. The Public Works Department has since
added a Traffic Engineer to the Engineering Division. It would be most efficient and therefore in
the public interest to update the delegations in Administrative Order No. 58-20-19 to apply to both
Traffic Engineers.
On the basis of these findings, I order that:
1. The authority to perform the duties and responsibilities specifically defined as those
of the City Manager in Sections 5.040, 5.045 and 5.050 of the Eugene Code, 1971, is hereby further
delegated to the Traffic Engineers of the Public Works Department.
2. The authority to exercise the duties and responsibilities specifically defined as those
of the Traffic Engineer, including but not limited to those duties and authorities stated in
administrative orders and administrative rules, is hereby further delegated to the Traffic Engineers
of the Public Works Department.

4. Administrative Order No. 58-20-19 is hereby repealed.
Dated and effective this 03/10/2026 day of March, 2026.
