ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58- fa- a I <br /> of the <br /> City Manager <br /> City of Eugene, Oregon <br /> The City Manager of the City of Eugene fmds that <br /> A. Under the provisions of Chapter W, Section 16 of the Eugene Charter of <br /> 1976, the City Manager is designated as the administrative head of the City, and is <br /> specifically authorized to appoint and remove all employees (except as otherwise provided <br /> in the Charter), organize, disband, or reorganize City departments, and to enforce all <br /> ordinances of the City. <br /> B. Pursuant to that authority, the City Manager has reorganized the Public <br /> Works Department and Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department (PARCS). <br /> As a result of the reorganization many of the functions, duties and responsibilities <br /> previously performed by the PARCS Department are now the function, duty or <br /> responsibility of the Public Works Department. <br /> C. In addition, many provisions of the Eugene Code, 1971, including Sections <br /> 2.812 to 2.817, authorize or require specific duties or acts to be performed by the person <br /> designated by the City Manager as the Executive Director of the Parks, Recreation and <br /> Cultural Services Department; and Section 4.330 of the Eugene Code, 1971 authorizes the <br /> City Manager or designee to designate areas within City parks where dogs may be allowed <br /> to run off leash. In conformity therewith, the City Manager previously found that these <br /> administrative duties could be more efficiently performed by the Executive Director of the <br /> Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services Department, and delegated the same to him by <br /> Administrative Order No. 57 -91 -03 issued on August 30, 1991. <br /> D. Due to the reorganization of the Public Works Department and PARCS <br /> Department, Administrative Order No. 57 -91 -03, and any other administrative orders in <br /> conflict herewith should be rescinded, together with the delegations contained therein, as <br /> of the effective date of this Administrative Order, and the duties and responsibilities <br /> delegated as set forth herein. <br /> E. The Executive Director of the Public Works Department should also be <br /> specifically authorized to delegate all or any of the duties or responsibilities delegated <br /> herein upon a determination that it would be more efficient and in the public interest to <br /> do so. <br /> Now, therefore, based upon the above findings, which are hereby adopted, <br /> Administrative Order - 1 <br />
