Residential, clinical and industrial interests
collided Tuesday as special interest group repre
sentatives gave their views concerning West
University refinement proposals
Refinement changes proposed by the
Eugene Planning Commission would curtail the
development of new clinics in the West University
area unless developers first obtain a conditional
use permit The affected area lies west of the
campus and south of 13th Avenue
Clinic representatives said doctors who
might establish practices in this area, because of
its proximity to Sacred Heart Hospital, would be
discouraged from doing so
Putting a c.imp on growth would be
"ridiculous," developer Tom Slocum said Not
only is Sacred Heart Hospital a large employer
locally, but because of its specialized patient
care, it also takes on regional significance, he
said
"Don't outlaw the clinics, because you might
need them someday "
However, ASUO president Rich Wilkins said if
the refinement plan is not passed, many of tne
6,500 students livrng in the West University area
would be deprived of low-cost housing when the
medical groups move in
"Students will have to move farther from
campus, thus incurring higher transportation
costs," Wilkins said
Also, because the area is located near
downtown, a decrease in residential population
could economically depress downtown busi
nesses, he said
Another refinement plan proposal discour
ages the use of automobiles and encourages the
use of bicycles, mass transit, walking, and other
forms of alternative transportation
Because of the number of bike-auto ac
cidents in the area — especially between 6th and
19th Avenues on Pearl Street — the proposal is
especially important, said Michael P'othe,
Student University Affairs Board vice chairer
"We want to make the bike routes from the
campus to the West University area more acces
sible to students," he said
