Political newcomers vie for Ward I
Briggs, MacDonald site timber concerns
By Don Peters
E met aid Associate Ed'lor __
Eugene City Council elections are usually low
key. but with the November elections just around
the corner, the Ward 1 race is l>eginning to heat
up
The candidates. Kandy MacDonald and Richard
"Dick" Briggs, an* both political newcomers.
While they both may be running for their first
elected office, each brings a wealth of talent and
experience into the campaign.
Emily Schue. the current City Council repre
sentative from the southern section of Eugene,
chose not to run for reelection.
Uriggs. 56. is the governmental coordinator for
the Eugene Chamber of Commerce and holds a
1956 business administration degree from the
University. His experience ranges from school fi
nance and workers compensation to environmen
tal issues and senior services.
"1 think 1 can contribute," Briggs said. "1 want
my grandkids to have a nice place to live.”
MacDonald. 31, is also a University graduate
(1990. H A. in political science. Phi Beta Kappa).
Eor the past three years, he has been a legislative
assistant for Slate Sen. l-irry Hill (D-Springfield):
a background which he says gives him an edge.
"I do have the experience at the state and coun
ty level," MacDonald said "I'm running because
government should represent public interest, not
special interest."
Wfith financial experts predicting an imminent
recession, talk in Eugene has turned to the econo
my. The city, as well as the entire state of Ore
gon. is timber dependent; something which wor
ries both candidates
"1 think we've moved away from an overde
pendence on timber." MacDonald said, adding
only one-third ot manufacturing in the city is tim
ber-related "We need future-oriented businesses,
responsible to the environment and the commu
nity.”
"The real problem is stability of finance."
Briggs said
Housing, especially for the homeless, is anoth
er big I o' al concern Briggs said an overdepen
dence on property tax has contributed to the
problem of affordable housing, while MacDonald
favors the I .a no County Homelessness and Afford
able Housing plan
"It's comprehensive,” MacDonald said of the
task force's plan, completed after a 10-month
study "We need to find a way to fund it
"Talk is cheap Now is the time to lake signifi
cant ai lion "
"Why does it t ost so much to buy a house'"
Briggs asked "We re building for the wrong peo
ple We’re building very few households for sin

gle residents.
"We have to have a lid on property taxes," he
added. "We have too many people being forced
out of their homes."
The environment has always been an issue in
the Eugene area. Both candidates have opinions
on what should be done, and how to go about do
ing it
"So many (government processes) don't
work," Briggs said. "There is a shortage of re
sources. so we have to make the processes work. "
MacDonald is looking to sponsor clean air leg
islation. South Eugene, he said, "has the worst
smog of any part of Eugene."
Briggs praised the local transportation system,
but said it could be improved.
"We have a tremendous system here," he said
"But I think if LTD and the city got together to
plan out long-term policy, it would be better."
Briggs said one improvement could be combin
ing the Eugene school district bussing with LTD.
"Why aren't 4] kids using LTD?" he asked.
"We integrate it and all of a sudden we have a
fantastic transportation system."
