RESOLUTION NO. <br /> A RESOLUTION RENAMING THE "AUTZEN FOOTBRIDGE" AS THE <br /> "DAVE AND LYNN FROHNMAYER PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE <br /> BRIDGE" <br /> The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that: <br /> A. In 1982 the City of Eugene, through the Eugene Water and Electric Board, <br /> entered into an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with the State of Oregon and Lane County <br /> regarding the construction and maintenance of a utility, pedestrian and bicycle bridge crossing <br /> the Willamette River south of Day Island Road. The IGA states that the bridge shall be named <br /> "The Autzen Footbridge." Eight years later an IGA between the City of Eugene and Lane <br /> County conveyed the Autzen Footbridge to the City. Subsequent to the IGAs, the City Council <br /> adopted resolutions referring to the "Autzen Footbridge," including Council's adoption of <br /> Resolution No. 4746 naming the Ruth Bascom Riverbank Trail System. Resolution No. 4746 <br /> describes the East Bank Trail as nine miles of trail along the river between the "Owosso Bicycle <br /> Bridge and the Autzen Footbridge." The execution of the IGAs, together with subsequent City <br /> Council action, officially named the bridge crossing the Willamette River south of Day Island <br /> Road as the Autzen Footbridge. <br /> B. To recognize and to pay tribute to the significant contributions that Dave and <br /> Lynn Frohnmayer have made to the Eugene community and to the University of Oregon, the <br /> City Council desires to rename the "Autzen Footbridge" the "Dave and Lynn Frohnmayer <br /> Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge." <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, <br /> BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a <br /> Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows: <br /> Section 1. In appreciation of the contributions made to the community by Dave and <br /> Lynn Frohnmayer, the "Autzen Footbridge" is renamed the "Dave and Lynn, Frohnmayer <br /> Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge." <br /> Section 2. Appropriate signs shall be posted identifying the bridge as the Dave and <br /> • Lynn Frohnmayer Pedestrian and Bicycle Bridge. <br /> Section 3. The City Recorder is requested to forward a copy of this Resolution to <br /> Dave and Lynn Frohnmayer. <br /> Section 4. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its adoption. <br /> The foregoing Resolution adopted the day of , 2009. <br /> City Recorder <br /> 00231534.DOC;1 <br /> Resolution - Page 1 of 1 <br />
