ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. ~S ` 1(~ -',2~ <br />of.the <br />City Manager Pro Tem of the City of Eugene <br />CONCERNING NOTICE OF INTENDED STREET TREE PROGRAM FEES AND <br />AMENDMENT OF THE TREE PRESERVATION FEE SCHEDULE ESTABLISHED BY <br />ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58-93-20-F <br />The City Manager Pro Tem of the City of Eugene finds as follows: <br />A. Pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.020 and 6.300 to 6.330 of the Eugene <br />Code, 1971, on February 25, 1994, the City Manager issued Administrative Order No. 58-93-20- <br />F establishing tree preservation permit and appeal fees as set forth therein. The process currently <br />being utilized for appeals has resulted in a reduction of cost to the City and the appeal fee should <br />therefore be reduced to $500.00. <br />B. Section 7.280 of the Eugene Code, 1971, which was recently added to that Code, <br />authorizes the Ciry Manager to establish fees for implementation of the City's street tree program. <br />It would be more efficient to consolidate those fees with the previously established tree <br />preservation fees in one schedule. <br />C. I find that the reduction in the tree preservation appeal fee and the proposed street <br />tree program fees set forth in Exhibit A hereto are consistent with applicable policies and <br />directives of the City Council, including policies developed through the Eugene becisions process, <br />are based. on the City's estimate of the costs associated with providing the services, and are. <br />necessary in order to recover those costs from the beneficiaries of the services. <br />On the basis of these findings, I order that: <br />1. Copies of the Notice be provided to the Mayor and City Councilors, posted at two <br />locations at City Hall, be made available for interested persons at the offices of the Ciry Manager, <br />777 Pearl Street, Eugene, Oregon 97401, during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., <br />Monday through~Friday, exclusive of holidays), and published in the Register Guard, a newspaper <br />of general circulation within the City. . <br />2. All persons desiring to comment thereon shalt submit written comments as set forth <br />in the Notice. I will thereafter establish the. fees by anadministrative order. <br />Dated this Sf day of Aleven r, 1996. <br />~ ~~.~~ ~ 1 d-~u_s~ <br />City Manager Pro Tem <br />Administrative Order iviii96 <br />
