Design Standards and Guidelines for Eugene Streets, Sidewalks, Bikeways and <br /> Access Ways ("Design Standards and Guidelines") were adopted by Resolution No. 4608 of the <br /> City Council on November 22, 1999. The Design Standards and Guidelines included a section <br /> that allowed for exceptions to the Design Standards and Guidelines and provided a list of six <br /> Criteria for Exceptions. This Criteria for Exceptions section was also set forth in the Eugene <br /> Arterial and Collector Street Plan also adopted on November 22, 1999, as ,findings in support of <br /> Ordinance No. 20181. <br /> B. Section 2 of Resolution 4608 specifically authorizes that the adopted Design <br /> Standards and Guidelines may be amended in accordance with Section 2.019 of the Eugene <br /> Code, 1971, (authorizing the City Manager to adopt rules and regulations necessary for the <br /> administration or enforcement of provisions of the Eugene Code, 1971), and Section 7.085 of the <br /> Eugene Code, 1971, (authorizing the City Engineer to prepare standards and standard <br /> specifications for construction, reconstruction, or repair of public improvements). <br /> C. Pursuant to that authority, on February 28, 2006 I issued Administrative Order <br /> No. 58-06-01, and notified the Mayor and City Councilors that I intended to amend the Criteria <br /> for Exceptions subsection of the Arterial and Collector Street Design Standards and the <br /> Guidelines section of the Design Standards and Guidelines by adding an additional (seventh) <br /> exception in order to meet design contingencies not addressed by the current exceptions as <br /> recommended by the City Engineer. <br /> D. The Notice was also published in the Register Guard, a newspaper of general <br /> circulation within the City on March 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 2006. The Notice provided that written <br /> comments would be received thereon for a period of 15 days from the first date of publication. <br /> No comments were received within the time and manner set forth in the Notice. <br /> Now, therefore, based on the above findings, and the findings in Administrative <br /> Order No. 58-06-01, I hereby order as follows: <br /> <br /> Administrative Order - 1 <br /> <br />
