NEWS BRIEF
Plans are looking up
for central Eugene hospital
Eugene city councilors made
progress last week toward getting a
second hospital in Eugene after pass
ing a resolution supporting the con
struction of a hospital on the down
town side of the Willamette River and
offering incentives to attract a hospi
tal to the area.
The council hopes to lure a hospital
within a 2.25 mile radius of Second Av
enue and Chambers Street, which is
south and west of the Willamette River.
The incentives for constructing the hos
pital may include assistance with clear
ing land for construction and providing
a "facilitator" to act as a liaison between
the city and the hospital to help find a
suitable site.
The council also tentatively ap
proved an ordinance to revise zoning
codes to make hospital siting easier,
but sent it back to the city attorney for
adjustments. The ordinance will be
voted on later this month.
Ward 3 City Councilor David Kelly
said the ideal location for a new hos
pital would be "close to the central
part of the city." Kelly added that a
centrally located hospital would make
access to medical services easier for
many community members.
Kelly said the city would provide
incentives for building a hospital near
the center of Eugene because the area
is more difficult to build in than in
the outskirts of the city. Some of the
challenges included clearing old
property to build over, buying land
from multiple owners and fostering a
good relationship with the surround
ing neighborhood, Kelly said.
McKenzie-Willamette Hospital has
expressed interest in moving to Eugene
and providing a full-service medical fa
cility. The health care provider currently
operates a hospital in Springfield.

PAPER
continued from page 1A
"paying for printing" system that
the Knight Library offered at that
time. However, the committee de
nied the request, recommending
that labs charge per page.
Because of such a dramatic de
crease in paper since the decision,
even campus recycling employees
have noticed less paper waste.
Student recycling coordinator Jeff
Ziglinski said campus recycling em
ployees have been able to reduce the
number of trips to campus labs from
an average of three times a week to
once a week.
"In general, this project has been
a success, and any way you look at
it, decreasing waste is a good idea."
he said.
But less paper waste isn't the only
consequence of charging students
per sheet.
The CC-EMU Computer Lab has
also seen a 17 percent decrease in the
number of students who have used
its facility since the new charge, ac
cording to McCoy.
Yet, lab users like Mason said she
has learned to conserve instead of
avoiding the campus labs.
"1 don't print out as many trivial
tilings/ she said. "Plus, it's just a pain
to put money on your card."
Through the new fee-based print
ing system, students can only use
campus printers with Campus Cash,
which is money charged through a
student identification card. Students
can put cash on their cards at the
University Card Office on the
ground floor of the EMU. Although
the task seems simple, McCoy said
the process is one of the reasons
some students don't print at campus
labs any more.
"We do our best to educate people
on how to use Campus Cash and
where to use it," she said.
Despite the decrease in users, Mc
Coy said the charge has reaped some
great benefits.
"We have saved enough money on
the long run to purchase a color
printer for the lab " she said. "And
Maintenance has allowed us to spend
saved money in other ways."
Now that the system is going into
its second year, McCoy said she
feels confident in the success of fee
based printing.
"This year, we've had nothing but
positive feedback from the commu
nity," she said.
