Public Hearing for Project 1-995, Paving, Curbs and Gutters, Sidewalks, Street Lighting, Street Trees, and Storm Drainage to Serve South 41st Street From Main Street to 220 Feet South, and Vicinity.

STREET LIGHTING AND STORM DRAINAGE TO SERVE SOUTH 41ST STREET FROM MAIN STREET TO 220 FEET SOUTH. AND VICINITY (1-995) AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY. City Engineer Al Peroutka presented the staff report. He explained the two properties involved were owned by Miles Investments, who is planning the development of a Texaco gas station with a fast food restaurant and David and Janet Tentinger who currently have a RV park located on their property. Mr. Peroutka explained the street improvement project is a condition of development approval and was requested by Miles Investments. Mr. Peroutka stated if the project is approved then a budget transfer will need to occur for assessment funding. The project meets the same standards as other street projects initiated. . Mayor Morrisette opened the public hearing. David Tentinger, 4105 Main Street, Springfield, owner of property at 41st and Main Street, stated he can not afford to participate in the improvement project at this time. He explained how he was approached by Bud Miles regarding his development and was told that if he did not voluntarily participate, that the City would force him to participate in the cost of the street project. Mr. Tentinger told Council that the improvements would not benefit his property or business and did not feel he should be required to assist with funding of the project. Councilor Burge asked why a gap between paved streets of approximately 200 feet in 41 st Street would occur if this project was initiated. Mr. Peroutka explained why the connection is not occurring, due to the opposition of three property owners who do not have signed improvement agreements, and a past Council decision regarding the full street improvement. Currently, only Mr. Tentinger has a valid improvement agreement and of course, the developer has stated his intent for the project completion also. Councilor Ballew asked if the street is currently paved. Mr. Peroutka explained it has an asphalt matte covering now and could not withstand the traffic level from the proposed development. . Andrew Lewis, 180 E. 11th Avenue, Eugene, stated he is representing Mr. Miles in the development process. He explained that Mr. Tentinger knew of the existing improvement agreement when he originally purchased the property. Mr. Lewis felt that the City would set a precedent if Mr. Tentinger was not made to participate in the project with a signed improvement agreement in place. . City of Springfield Regular Council Meeting - 7/1/96 Page five Mayor Morrisette closed the public hearing. Councilor Maine supported the improvement project as there is a valid improvement agreement on file with the City and the project is needed to develop Main Street. Councilor Shaver agreed and although he stated his sympathies to Mr. Tentinger, the property was purchased with a recorded agreement and the street project should be initiated. Councilor Dahlquist stated his support for the project initiation and suggested adding the extra 200 feet needed to complete the full street. Council discussed the remonstrance process and the number of property owners who would be willing to participate or who have a signed improvement agreement if the remaining 200 feet were also improved. Councilor Burge stated an improvement agreement is a condition of development and if the Council does not uphold the agreements, then future problems will occur and precedents will be set. Councilor Ballew stated her concern for both parties, but agreed that the project should be initiated. She asked how many property owners on South 41 st Street have signed improvement agreements and how many legal property owners there are. . Council postponed further discussion of this item until the property ownership could be verified on South 41 st Street. BUSINESS FROM THE AUDIENCE COUNCIL RESPONSE CORRESPONDENCE AND PETITIONS 1.

Council returned to their discussion of the Public Hearing for Project 1-995. Mr. Peroutka and Mr. Branch provided a map which confirmed the property owners on 41 st Street. They explained that only three of the eight property owners have signed improvement agreements. Council discussed whether or not to pursue the issue of completing the full improvement project, including the 200 additional feet needed to connect with the paved portion of the street. Mr. Peroutka read into the record the legal property owners on S. 41st Street. Councilor Burge stated his support for the full improvement project. Councilor Shaver spoke in favor of the full improvement project also, but did not feel it was fair to the developer to wait until after Council's summer recess to obtain street improvement approval. IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR BURGE, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR BALLEW, TO INITIATE A FULL STREET IMPROVEMENT PROJECT FROM MAIN STREET NORTH TO BLUEBELL WAY, TO CONNECT WITH THE EXISTING IMPROVED STREET.

Request by Sony Disc Manufacturing Company to Extend Property Tax Abatement Benefits for Additional Two Years. RESOLUTION NO. 96-30 - A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SIGN AGREEMENTS WITH LANE COUNTY AND THE SONY DISC MANUFACTURING COMPANY TO EXTEND THE PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION TWO YEARS FOR AN EXPANSION OF SONY'S OPTICAL DISC MANUFACTURING FACILITY IN THE MCKENZIE GA TEW A Y AREA. Community and Economic Development Manager John Tamulonis presented the staff report. He stated Sony Disc Manufacturing Company would like to expand its existing manufacturing facilities for optical discs, and increase employment for Phase II of construction by 10%. In order to complete the expansion, Sony is asking for an additional two years property tax abatement extension, through their enterprise zone benefits. Mr. Tamulonis explained that Sony has requested an extension for an additional two years, to total five years of enterprise zone benefits. He stated that Sony will pay the City of Springfield an additional amount of $59,520 per year, to compensate for police and fire services. . Mayor Morrisette asked what year of the property tax abatement program is Sony currently in. Mr. Tamulonis replied, Sony is in the first year and that the first two years of partial construction were abated by the State of Oregon. He clarified that the $59,520 will be in addition to the $250,000 that was agreed upon in the original enterprise zone agreement, and the partial construction program will not apply to any concurrent phases of Sony development. . City of Springfield Regular Council Meeting - 7/1/96 Page nine Mr. Tamulonis clarified that both enterprise zone agreements will terminate in five years from July 1, 1996, or July 1,2001. Council discussed the benefit to the City of waiting until the Sony's annexation becomes effective to begin the taxation process. Mr. Kelly explained that the annexation effective date for Sony Disc Manufacturing is July 1,2001, and the City has realized a greater benefit from negotiating the enterprise zone conditions and annexation process, than if Sony would of been placed on the City's tax roll initially. Councilor Ballew asked whether during the initial five year tax abatement period, the City could deny the two-year extension request. Mr. Tamulonis stated the original exemption would continue for the initial approved five-year period, but Sony would begin paying taxes during the third year on the Phase II development costs. Mr. Kelly explained granting the additional two years would affect the County's tax rate, but would not make a difference in the amount of taxes that the County actually collects. . Councilor Burge discussed the depreciation of Sony's real property versus their personal property, and asked if their $12.5 million dollars of equipment would be listed separate of their enterprise zone investment. Mr. Kelly explained that Sony could have either made their equipment investment separate of the enterprise zone abatement process or could have made the investment without the additional abatement incentive. Mr. Kelly stated that all future expansion by Sony may depend on it's initial enterprise zone property tax abatements. IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR BURGE, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR SHAVER, TO ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 96-30, GRANTING SONY DISC MANUFACTURING AN EXTENSION OF THEIR PROPERTY TAX ABATEMENT BENEFITS FOR TWO ADDITIONAL YEARS. THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 5 FOR AND 0 AGAINST. COUNCILOR BEYER WAS ABSENT (EXCUSED). 3. Fiscal Year 1996-97 Intergovernmental Human Services Agreement. Management Analyst Lynn Nakamura presented the staff report. She stated that Councilor Ballew is Springfield's liaison to the Intergovernmental Human Services Committee (IHSC) . She reviewed the proposed agreement and stated it was basically the same agreement as approved for fiscal year 1995-96, with changes in the language referring to both funding and sub-agreements. Councilor Ballew discussed both the agreement and the process in which the Springfield Budget Committee used to determine funding for IHSC in the 1996-97 budget. Councilor Ballew stated she made the IHSC aware of Springfield's intent for funding in the 1996-97 budget process at the last IHSC committee meeting. . Councilor Burge stated his concern over the agreement language, and commented on a discussion he had with Steve Manela of Lane County. . City of Springfield Regular Council Meeting - 7/1/96 Page ten Councilor Burge requested a list of services from all the social service agencies in Lane County, with their operating budgets and line item descriptions. He stated he would like to know what services are currently being provided in Lane County. Mayor Morrisette stated Council should not authorize the City Manager to sign the agreement and should revise the language to clearly state that Springfield will not give one percent of its General Fund to IHSC. He strongly emphasized that any agreement signed should clearly state Springfield's intentions. Mayor Morrisette commented he will ask the Council to contribute additional funding to certain programs, but for now, Springfield did not commit to increase IHSC funding and should not be held accountable for it. IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR BURGE, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR SHA VER, TO REJECT AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT. . City Attorney Tim Harold clarified that Council had not set a funding goal of one-percent of the General Fund for FY 1996-97 and stated there is an "out" clause in paragraph 2(a)(2) which states that a funding commitment of one-percent of the General Fund was not agreed upon. If Council prefers to delete the language in paragraph 2(a)(2), then a tri-agency agreement could be presented by Springfield to the other two jurisdictions (Lane County and the City of Eugene). Mr. Harold asked if Council would be willing to instruct the City Manager to sign the agreement if paragraph 2(a)(2) was deleted. Council members discussed their desires to support social services funding at whatever level is needed, but that there were other service priorities that prevented the Council from being able to fund IHSC at the one- percent level now. Further, Council clarified that it had already approved FY 1996-97 IHSC funding with the adoption of the FY 1996-97 budget and there was no reason that funding for IHSC programs this year should be interrupted. Council clarified their commitment of funding, but would like the agreement modified to recognize Springfield's budget limitations. THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 4 FOR AND 1 AGAINST (DAHLQUIST) . COUNCILOR BEYER WAS ABSENT (EXCUSED). IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR SHAVER, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR MAINE, TO INSTRUCT THE CITY MANAGER TO SIGN THE FISCAL YEAR 1996-97 INTERGOVERNMENTAL HUMAN SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH PARAGRAPH 2(A)(2) REMOVED; AFTER LEGAL COUNSEL REVIEW, FOR ANY OTHER LANGUAGE THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE CHANGED IN ORDER TO COMMUNICATE THE COUNCIL'S POSITION TO THE OTHER PARTIES. IF ADDITIONAL CHANGES ARE NECESSARY, COUNCIL REQUESTS THA T STAFF RETURN THE AGREEMENT AT THE NEXT REGULARLY SCHEDULED COUNCIL MEETING FOR REVIEW. THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 5 FOR AND 0 AGAINST. COUNCILOR BEYER WAS ABSENT (EXCUSED). . . . . ., l , ... City of Springfield Regular Council Meeting - 7/1/96 Page eleven 4.

SECTION III - G; ADOPTING AN EXCEPTION TO LCDC GOAL 11: AND ADOPTING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE (JO. NO. 96-04-73) (SECOND READING). Mr. Mott presented the public record documents, including new items: 1) a memorandum from Ken Cole, and 2) additional testimony as delivered by Mike Copely from Lane County. Mr. Mott stated he'd requested a postponement of this item in order to wait for a vote by the the Eugene City Council on this issue. He reported the Eugene City Council voted five to four, to defer adoption of the ordinance until an intergovernmental agreement between all three parties (Lane County, City of Eugene and City of Springfield) has been completed including the provision that all three parties agree to the terms of the intergovernmental agreement. He said a date for adoption of the ordinance or intergovernmental agreement had not been set. Mr. Mott suggested if Council agrees with the action that the Eugene City Council took, then Springfield should adopt the ordinance. If not, his recommendation was to reject the ordinance. Mr. Mott answered questions about the intent of Eugene's actions. Councilor Shaver felt adoption of the ordinance with an intergovernmental agreement to follow, by all three parties would be appropriate. He felt the City of Eugene acted in good faith by agreeing not to adopt the ordinance amending the Metropolitan Area General Plan amendment until an intergovernmental agreement had been proposed and adopted by all three parties. Mr. Mott explained the process which would occur in the event that only two of the three jurisdictions take action on the ordinance, with conflict resolution deferring to the Metropolitan Policy Committee (MPC). Clarification was made that no action can be taken on the Metro Plan without Springfield's prior approval of the intergovernmental agreement.
