Council favors construction of East Bank bicycle path Ben Moetotus O&fty l nw**k1 The Kngone City Council dm ided to pursue construction of its hast Bank bicycle path sis originally planned sn a work mm sion Wednesday, despite some ohjm lions from the < ommumtv The i ouncil voted unitin' mously to adopt a motion giving the iitv authority to acquire easements on land needed to complete the trail This process could involve condemnation or fon ud acquisition of some dis puled areas The most disputed private piece of land runs through the grounds of Marist High School, a private Catholic institution Jeremy Starr, a member of the board of dim tors at Marist. said that if the trail crosses Marist si hool properly, m* uritv will have to he developed to deal with the crime and vandal ism that will accompany the path “Anywhere from 2.000 to 4.000 a day people will use the hike path m ross Marist." Starr said. •This will definitely require security measures and will Jeopardize the safety of this school." Soro*) residents of the Willamette Oaks nttlremenl ( en ter. Island Estates t ondominium complex and Boulders on the River apartment complex also oppose the motion Anita Kants, a resident of Willamette Oaks, said she was afraid the hike path would dis nipt the natural areas around undeveloped portions of Willamette River and bring < rime to those areas However, city count il mem tiers said they were determined to follow the bikeways master plan, which was originally con• reived nearly 20 years ago. "The community in general, and e*|»e ( hilly the North Eugene area, wants this to happen," Council man fun Torres said Count ilwoman Lori Swanson Grihskov said she wanted to "indit ate that the (ity council e*pe( Is the entire path to be built as quickly as possible." The city has about $1 6 mil lion to spend on the progs t The city has collected about $.125,000 in system develop ment charges from developers to lie used for the profet t and $1 i million in federal funds art* also f Manst SctooJ VRC 'V *— Proposed path f MfcRALD available The total cast of the two phase project is estimated at S2 4 million Council members u^aiu stated that they want the acquisitions to accommodate private proper ty owners as much as possible "1 hope we don't make tins tougher than we have to," said Torrey. "Let's do this reason ably." To assure this, the council unanimously passed a motion that will require staff to come back before the council before condemnation proceedings are carried out Starr said Marist has hired two appraisers who have valued the land at Sfl-t 1 per square foot If the city chooses to con demn,'' he said, "this could cost them up to $400,000.” Marist High School's concerns do not arise out of any kind of elitism, Starr said. “We are fac ing these charges of Ixung an elitist, private school." he said "The truth is, 1/3 of our students come from families that make $1H,000-ZB,000 a year," The plan has generated con troversy throughout Eugene with more than 700 letters of protest and ftOO letters of sup port sent to the city council last week Torrey sail! that more than 5,200 people a day are expected to use the new hike path once it is completed. SENATE Continued from Page 1 dental fees Sun. Justin Good cast the only dissenting volt* The original goal statement was rwje« led March l bv the ASUO Programs Pinanc.n Committee, which meant that OSP1KG had to appeal t«*fon» the senate. With its statement now approved, OSPIRG will present their 1995 96 budget to the PFC today at 6 p in in rtxun 45 of Columbia Hall A crowd of more than SO OSPIRG sup porters gathered for the Student Senate meet mg. with six supporters testifying before the senate Only one student testified in oppo sition of the group Applause erupted when the goal statement was approved The senate's vote was a victory lor students, said Katy Anthes, chairwoman of the Uni versity OSPIKG chapter “The students prevailed tonight." she said. Hie original goal statement was rejected by the PFC because it did not demonstrate, to PFC members, that OSPIKG was beneficial to the development of the student body as a whole, a requirement that all student groups must meet in order to receive student fees The PFC recommended, among other changes, that OSPIKG revise its statement to reflect more of the group's activities on the University campus specifically. "The original statement only mentioned haw OSPOtG benefits University students one time," said Senate President Pro Tempore Martin Fisher. The new statement mentioned the Univer sity a total of 25 times The revised goal statement also mentioned ft v a I scrutiny, an area lacking in the last stalls ment, Fisher said In response to the concern that OSP1RG is biased in the issues it will work on. Fish er said there is nothing in the goal statement that says which side of an issue OSP1RG will represent, and it is the students in the group who decide. rtf Lbj'IbKNAIlONAL COMPUTER CENTER.
