ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER N0.58-03-21-F ' ~ ~' of the City Manager of the City of Eugene AMENDMENT OF UTILITY RIGHT-OF-WAY USE PERMIT FEE SCHEDULE; RATIFICATION OF UNAMENDED FEES; AND REPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER N0.58-02-29- F. The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: A. Section 2.020 of the Eugene, Code, 1971 authorizes the City Manager to determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for services, goods, use of municipal property, and licenses and permits. In accordance with the procedures set forth therein, and the authority of Section 7.300 of the Eugene Code, 1971, Administrative Order No. 58-.02-29-F was adopted on February 18, 2003, establishing the major aerial installation permit fees and reformatting and ratifying the unamended Utility Right-of--Way Permit Fee Schedule. B. On November 19, 2003, I issued Administrative Order No. 58-03-21 and notified the Mayor and City Council that I intended to amend the Annual "Blanket" Permit fees and Individual Permit fees set forth in Sections I and II of the Utility Right-of--Way Use Permit Fee Schedule (which were scheduled to sunset on December 31, 2003), as more particularly set forth in the Notice of Intended Fees attached as Exhibit A thereto, effective January 1, 2004. C. The Notice of Intended Fees was posted at two locations at City Hall and published in the Register Guard, a newspaper of general circulation within the City, on November 25, 2003 and was made available for inspection by interested persons at the office of Damon Joyner, Traffic Technical Team Supervisor, 1820 Roosevelt Boulevard, Eugene, Oregon 97402, during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, exclusive of holidays). The Notice provided that written comments would be received thereon for a period of 30 days from the date of posting and publication. No comments were received within the time and manner provided in the Notice. However, during the comment period staff noted that in Section III (Major Arterial Installation Permit Fee) of the Fee Schedule (for which no amendments were proposed), the second sentence of Step Two states "This rate shall be applicable for the calendar year 2003." I did not intend to amend or have the rate established under Step Two sunset. Staff recommended that, to make Step Two consistent with my intent, this sentence should be deleted I concur with the recommendation, and that correction is reflected in the attached Fee Schedule. D. Based on the above fmdings, and the findings in Administrative Order No. 58-03-21, I find that amendment of the permit fees as referenced in Finding B above is consistent with applicable policies and directives of the City Council, comparable to the fees established in other Administrative Order - 1 C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Fi]es\OLKB202\03UtilityROW2ao.wpd (00067550).WPD(12/26/03)
