EC Section 2.820 specifically authorizes the City Manager to establish fees necessary in order to implement the provisions of EC Sections 2.815 and 2.820. B. In accordance with the procedures set forth therein, on January 29, 2003, I issued Administrative Order No. 21-03-02 and notified the Mayor and City Councilors that I intended to establish a domestic partnership registration fee for persons in committed relationships who meet the domestic pm~tnership criteria to register at the office of the City Recorder and obtain a certificate attesting to their status. C. Notice was also posted at two locations at City Hall on January 29, 2003, and made available for inspection by interested persons at the offices of the City Manager, 777 Pearl Street, Eugene, Oregon, 97401, during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m,, Monday through Friday, exclusive of holidays), Notice provided that written comments would be received for a period of 15 days from the date of posting. No written comrnents were received in the time or in the manner provided in the Notice. D.
