will listen, but are inclined to op
pose any plans that require level
ing existing structures.
“The information we have now
is that there is no support of con
demnation,” he said, referring to a
recent PeaceHealth public opinion
survey finding that most respon
dents opposed knocking down ex
isting buildings for hospital expan
sion.
Still, Terrett said: “At this point,
we are reviewing our options.”
The last card the council is hold
ing is a zoning change that would
prohibit a hospital from being built
at the Crescent Avenue location.
The council voted at the end of
June to take this relatively hard
line approach, but the change
wouldn’t go into effect until Sep
tember.
PeaceHealth could file a condi
tional use permit before Septem
ber, begin planning and construc
tion and duck the zoning change.
So far, the University has stayed
out of the negotiations.
“We won’t do any serious think
ing about consequences until the
outcome is clear,” University Vice
President Dan Williams said. “We
are following the discussions very
closely.”
Dr. Gerald Fleischli, the director
of the University Health Center,
said his only concern was emer
gency services. If Sacred Heart’s in
patient center is moved to North
Eugene, emergency care would
still be offered at the Hilyard site,
but treatment requiring operations
would be routed to Crescent Av
enue.
“It is convenient now for stu
dents to walk over to the emer
gency room when we’re closed,”
Fleischli said. “That would be less
convenient if they moved away.”
PeaceHealth first announced
plans to move in March.
Sacred Heart has undergone con
tinual renovation since opening
more than 75 years ago, and hospi
tal officials say there is no more
room to grow at the existing site.

Hospital officials say Sacred Heart Medical Center, located at 13th and Hilyard, has no
more room for expansion. PeaceHeaith favors moving the facility to a site in North Eugene.
OUS budget
continued from page 1
Provost John Moseley represent
ed the University at the meeting.
Moseley did not return repeated
inquiries for an interview regard
ing the increases and whether the
University will also apply to the
Emergency Board for a tuition in
crease above the 4 and 3 percent
caps.
ASUO President Nilda Brook
lyn, who took office at the end of
spring term, said she met with
University President Dave Frohn
mayer briefly before the OUS
meeting to discuss the budget,
and in that meeting she said she
wanted the energy fee to be
capped at $30.
She said the increase to cover
energy costs bothered her because
she would rather see a stronger fo
cus on how the school can con
serve instead of simply raising the
price for students.
Last winter and spring terms, as
the Oregon House and Senate
pushed and pulled on the higher
education budget, rumors arose
that the tuition increases could
each as much as 8 percent each
year for the next two years.
When the 4 and 3 percent lev
els were approved, many
breathed a sigh of relief that the
totals would not exceed those
amounts. Brooklyn said the Uni
versity’s use of student fees to
cover the difference does raise

concerns based on her philoso
phy that students should have
control of where their money
goes on campus.
“When I see increases not stu
dent-led, I am a bit concerned,”
she said.
The ASUO uses its Programs,
Athletic Department and EMU
committees to dole out incidental
fees each year for student groups,
athletic tickets and other costs.
Brooklyn said she plans to meet
with Frohnmayer again at the be
ginning of the month. Until then,
she said she will continue to study
the numbers, see if the administra
tion plans to appeal to the Emer
gency Board and discuss any prob
lems with the University president
if they arise.
“It’s too early in the game for me
to see how this is going to play
out,” she said.
