City manager will examine
smoking ban reprieves
Some of the Eugene bars that still
allow smoking indoors might soon
have to send their smokers outside.
City Manager Jim Johnson decid
ed Wednesday morning to review
the six-month reprieves that allow
smoking in 31 area bars while those
establishments build or upgrade
outdoor smoking areas.
Bars and taverns unable to build
smoking areas or those choosing to
immediately comply with the ban
haven’t allowed smoking indoors
since the smoking prohibition went
into effect July 1.
The intent of the review is to weed
out any businesses using the exten
sions to delay going smoke-free from
those bars legitimately constructing
outdoor smoking areas, city
spokesman Tom Olshanski said.
“There may be a misunderstand
ing with maybe as many as ten
bars,” he said.
City officials will report to the
City Council at noon on July 18 in
the McNutt Room at City Hall.
The council decided to revisit the
smoking ban, which passed 7-1 on
Nov. 13, after a manager of three newly
smoke-free bars said at Monday night’s
council session that he’s lost customers
to bars that still allow smoking.

The Ducks take on Wisconsin-Green
Bay, Miami of Ohio and Portland.
But it gets a little harder for Ore

in Portland, then host Texas Tech,
No. 12 in the nation last season, Nov.
26 at McArthur Court. Oregon will
then travel to Kansas for the Jayhawk
Classic, a tournament that includes
Kansas and St. John’s.
The Ducks round out the presea
son schedule with games against
Utah, a Sweet 16 team last year that
also beat Oregon in the regular sea
son, and Brigham Young. The
Ducks open their Pacific-10 Confer
ence slate Dec. 20 at UCLA.

to be led. They just really want to be
advised and supported.”
ThuVan Hoang, the marketing di
rector for the ASUO, said she is
looking forward to working with
Morozumi in the coming year.
“I know through our meetings
that he seems like the type of person
who is really motivated and pre
pared to take on whatever comes his
way,” she said.
