Election News
Pape only candidate for Ward 5
Running uncontested,
Gary Dean Pape should
have a position on the
City Council next year
By Tricia Duryee
Community Reporter
The May 15 primary election for
Eugene City Council Ward 5 —
which contains most of the area
west of Coburg Road and north of
the Willamette River — will be an
easy decision for those citizens to
make; there is only one candidate.
Running uncontested, Gary
Dean Papi should start his posi
tion on the City Council at the be
ginning of next year after Vice
President Ken Tollenaar’s term
ends in December.
As an attorney, Pape said he has
past public-safety experience as a
prosecutor from Utah.
Pape also said his experience in
business management and real es
tate through his company, Pape
Properties, will play an important
role in his council responsibilities.
Councilman Tollenaar decided
not to run for re-election; however,
he thought the greatest challenge for
the new council would be to set up
another source of income for the city.
“In the next few years, the coun
cil will have to get the people to
approve a new source of revenue
to avoid cuts in services from Mea
sure 47,” said Tollenaar. “It had
some awful effects in the cultural
services and recreation.”
Pap6 said one of the biggest is
sues for the council would be to
designate more sites for parks and
recreational fields.
“I am concerned with the adequa
cy of parks,” he said. “We are way be
hind in baseball and soccer fields
compared to other cities of this size. ”

Pap6 said he wanted the posi
tion because he felt it was time to
do something for the community.
“1 was raised in Eugene. I have
raised four children here, and it
has been home to my extended
family and business,” he said. “It
was time to give back, and this was
the appropriate way. ”
Pap6 said some of the issues, be
sides parks, would include con
tinuing public safety and manag
ing growth.
One decision the council will
have to make is the hiring of a new
city manager to fill the vacancy left
by Vicki Elmer’s recent termina
tion. Tollenaar and Pape don’t see
this process as a big concern.
"I don’t consider it to be a horren
dous, difficult task,” said Tollenaar.
“Cities go through it all the time. ”
Pap6 agreed: “The biggest chal
lenge will be to determine a clear
and detailed objective in what we
want from a city manager. [The
MATT GARTON/Emerald
termination] wasn’t pleasant, but
it wasn’t unusual.”
While Tollenaar thought Pape
would do a good job, he also thought
there would be some differences.
“He follows things pretty close
ly. He represents the business in
terest of the community, which is
something I would never be con
fused with,” Tollenaar said.
However, Pape looked at it dif
ferently. “[Tollenaar] is a wonder
ful, thoughtful man. We might
view a few things differently, but I
don’t see a huge shift.”
Pap6 said he would like to see
the council go back to strictly be
ing a policy-making body and be
less involved in the day-to-day op
erations of the city.
As for dealing with what he
considers an eclectic community,
Pape said: “It is hard to get a grasp
of a common will, other than to
obtain a high quality of life. I am
ready to represent Ward 5.”
