Community participation at these events has been <br />strong. Several truckloads of debris was removed from the Ponds <br />area, a diking project improved water flow, and over 200 persons <br />attended Delta Ponds wildlife lectures and field trips. <br />A landscape architecture class at the University of Oregon worked <br />with the Friends of Delta Ponds and the Eugene Stream Team <br />Volunteer Coordinator to develop an architectural proposal for a <br />Delta Pond Nature Park. That proposal will be presented at a <br />community forum Wednesday. May 31 at 7:00 p.m in Harris Hall, Lane <br />County Public Service Building <br />We welcome the attendance of City Council members and other <br />interested City staff at this event. <br />Attached is a copy of a relevant letter recently sent to the Eugene <br />City Council and Lane County Commissioners related to a Delta Ponds <br />Nature Park proposal. <br />For additional information contact Charles Patton (343 -2545) or <br />Iris Sayre (344 - 5145), members of Friends of Delta Ponds. <br />
