Space is limited so please RSVP if you plan to attend <br /> and have not already done so. <br /> Travel and Parking Instructions: Take W. 11th to Bailey Hill Rd. Left on Bailey Hill <br /> Rd. to first driveway on left (1/4 mile) AFTER crossing the Amazon. Follow driveway <br /> along Amazon to rear of building. The parking area to the North and behind the building <br /> will be open. Please enter the BACK DOOR where signs will be posted. The meeting <br /> area is upstairs. <br /> Start and End Times: Also note the doors will open at 12:30 PM for registration and <br /> networking time. We will start promptly at 1 PM and end between 4:30 and 5 PM. <br /> Attendees: Due to space limitations we were not able to involve everyone that wanted to <br /> attend. However, this is just the first of many meetings that will be held to hear from <br /> community members regarding their views of sustainable development in Eugene. Rest <br /> assured that every community member and organization that desires to participate and <br /> offer ideas will have ample opportunity in the very near future. <br /> Sustainable Development Strategy Process: The attached memo from Mayor Piercy <br /> explains the purpose and process as it stands today that will be used to move forward <br /> with a sustainable development strategy. <br /> Brainstorming Meeting Purpose: Participants are sure to have many questions about <br /> what it means to craft a sustainable development strategy for Eugene. However, the <br /> agenda is tight and does not provide a lot of time for answering questions. To the <br /> contrary, no formal decisions of any type have been made. The meeting on April 19 is the <br /> start of an extensive information gathering process intended to eventually answer many <br /> of the questions people may have. <br /> In specific, the purpose is to garner ideas from individuals representing key <br /> constituencies and organizations or which provide important services (such as education, <br /> energy, and health care) regarding what is important to them about the future of the <br /> community and what a sustainability plan should address. Therefore, we ask that you <br /> come prepared to share your thoughts on the questions asked. You may leave with as <br /> many or more unanswered questions as you came with. However, we intend to be able to <br /> 4 answer those questions after the information gathering process is completed. <br />
