ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58 -95-09 F <br />of the <br />CITY MANAGER OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, OREGON <br />Policy and Procedures Regulating Vehicle Parking <br />Off Improved Surfaces in Parks <br />The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds that: <br />A. Pursuant to the authority contained in Sections 2.019 and 5.040 of the Eugene <br />Code, 1971, on June 22, 1995 I issued Administrative Order No. 58 -95-09 proposing the adoption <br />of policy and procedures regulating vehicle parking off improved surfaces in parks. <br />B. Notice of the proposed amendments was published in the Register Guard for five <br />consecutive days, to-wit, on June 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29, 1995. The Notice was also made <br />available to persons who had requested notice, and provided that written comments would be <br />received thereon for a period of 15 days from the first date of publication. <br />C. Three comments were received in the manner required by the Notice, to which I <br />make the following findings: <br />Comment 1 : The -Executive Director of WISTEC expressed concern that the <br />parking fee requirement of Subsection 3.6 of the Policy and Procedures would seriously <br />interfere with the current contractual relationship WISTEC has with the University of <br />Oregon to allow overflow parking in the WISTEC paved lot and grassy surfaces during <br />home football games. The amounts received from the U of O are not large, but are vital <br />to the continued operation of WISTEC. <br />: In response to this comment, staff has recommended that the Policy and <br />Procedures be revised to allow the Parks Operation Manager to waive the requirement to <br />charge and/or pay the, parking fee to the City for those events that are limited to one day <br />only, providing the promoter is in compliance with other requirements of the rule. I <br />concur with the staff's recommendation, and the waiver provision has been added to the <br />rule. <br />Comment 2 : The President of the Japanese - American Association of Lane County <br />indicated that it most likely would be unable to comply with the application requirements <br />of the Policy and Procedures for its annual O'Bon Festival which is scheduled for July 29, <br />1995 in Alton Baker Park, and requested that the proposed rules not be adopted, or in the <br />alternative not become effective until after July 29, 1995. <br />Administrative Order - 1 <br />
