incidental fee level
By GREG WASSON
Of the Emerald
SALEM - University students will gain more control over the
incidental fee process if the Legislature passes a bill sponsored by
Sen. Ed Fadeley, D-Eugene.
S B. 720 would require the Oregon State Board of Higher
Education to accept fee levels established by the student govern
ments at each of the state system colleges and universities.
Currently, the fee, which is used to fund student programs and
activities, is set by the board on the recommendations of the
institutions’ presidents.
“It (the proposed fee process) is similiar to the control local
taxpayers have over the budget,” says John Moore, legislative
liason for the Oregon Student Lobby.
“There’s no upper limit, but under the bill if the student
government recommends an increase in excess of 10 per cent
there will be an election by the student body.”
The bill hasn't yet been scheduled for public hearing because
the OSL wanted time to lobby individual legislators before the
hearing, Moore says. When the hearing does occur, the lobby will
suggest changes in the legislation, he says.
“We plan to seek amendments which say that if a decrease is
proposed in excess of 10 percent, that will also be submitted to the
students.
In other legislative business, the House Judiciary Committee
has tabled HB 2456, which would give campus security the power of
police. Rep. Margie Hendriksen, D-Eugene, made the motion to
table the bill, a move that deactivates the legislation but doesn't
entirely kill it.
Hendriksen, who has sponsored legislation requiring adequate
locks on dorms, is quick to point out that her actions don’t mean
she’s ambivalent about the protection of students.
“I’m also concerned about the safety of people in the sense
that we have professionally trained and supervised law officers,”
she says.
"That’s a must if they’re going to carry firearms, if they’re going
to have the same rights and powers of police officers. Those are
powerful perogatives to give people.
"I’m concerned about having a private police force on campus
that isn’t accountable to any elected officials.”
But where that issue appears to be dead, another is just heating
up.
The Senate Committee on Environment and Land Use is
holding hearings on the three bills aimed at establishing the role the
Land Conservation and Development Commission will play once
the 277 local land-use plans are adopted.
One bill maintains a strong state voice in the planning process,
a second would require that the commission object to amendments
to local plans by appealing to a newly-created land-use court, and
the third would have the department appeal to the established
land-use board of appeals.
Whatever the LCDC’s new role, it will have a new adversary.
The commission has survived two attacks at the polls, the second
time by a margin greater than the first, and opponents plan to move
to the courts.
At a Monday press conference, the Oregon Legal Foundation
announced its creation A member of the Foundation’s board of
directors, Lon Bryant, said the organization’s intent is to “put some
balance in land use decisions
