• <br /> on -site training. This training would consist of a two day session with a <br /> field segment of the instructors giving direction to staff on the best methods <br /> of pruning of the trees along Coburg Road between Oakway and Oakmont. Once <br /> the details (timing, cost, etc.) of such a training was determined Jan will <br /> contact Dave Koski and relay this info. If the details are acceptable to both <br /> agencies, EWEB /CITY will jointly sponsor this training. This decision is <br /> expected within the week. <br /> The group also briefly discussed coordination process for tree removal. <br /> Johnny Medlin offered to write up a draft proposal of where he thought we <br /> might be heading. <br /> NOTE TO EVERYONE - I realize the format below is somewhat choppy at present. <br /> As we work forward on the various issues I think it will fill out some as well <br /> as some which is too detailed dropping out of the FORMAL AGREEMENT and going <br /> into more of a staff to staff working "letter of understanding ". But for now <br /> it is helpful for me at least to use this format. Thanks Johnny <br /> FIRST VERY VERY ROUGH DRAFT <br /> INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT <br /> THIS AGREEMENT entered into by and between the Eugene Water and Electric <br /> Board, a municipal corporation, hereinafter referred to as EWEB, and the City <br /> of Eugene, a municipal corporation, hereinafter referred to as CITY. <br /> RECITALS: <br /> * The CITY and EWEB recognize a need to meet requirements to safeguard <br /> public welfare and to increase efficiencies in public facility <br /> maintenance. <br /> * EWEB recognizes CITY is responsible to maintain the trees within the <br /> street right -of -ways. <br /> * CITY recognizes EWEB has a legal obligation to perform line clearance <br /> activities to the tolerances required by the Public Utility Commission. <br /> * EWEB and CITY recognize that healthy and aestheticly pleasing trees have <br /> a beneficial impact on the livability of our area. <br /> * EWEB and CITY recognize it is in the best interest of each agency to <br /> coordinate the work each performs on trees, to coordinate public <br /> information efforts, and cooperate in ways that increase maintenance <br /> efficiencies. <br /> CONTACT AND COORDINATION <br /> 2 <br />
