Public survey data <br />(i) Collate existing formal community survey information that <br />has been gathered within the last ten years regarding <br />expressed desires for recreational opportunities within <br />Eugene and Amazon Park.

Invite submission of reasonable options for Amazon Park and ballfields <br />(not necessarily limited to consideration of Amazon Park) by soliciting <br />community proposals, setting a deadline, e.g., of 2 months, after the <br />above information has been made available. <br />3. Undertake a new Amazon Park and ballfields master plan Prepare a draft <br />analysis of all reasonable alternatives for Amazon Park and ballfields <br />including the pros and cons of each alternative in light of the information <br />listed above. Utilize public assistance and input in amending the 1994 <br />Amazon Park master plan. <br />All these steps should be undertaken with appropriate committee oversight, <br />community assistance and full transparency. <br />In addition, all discussions will be helped greatly by avoiding the term "needs" <br />when talking about "wants." Most of what is being talked about is "wants." <br />Please let me know if we can meet to talk further about the above proposed <br />process. <br />Mary O'Brien <br />485 -6886 <br />mob@darkwing.uoregon.edu <br />
