Green said that the expand-
ed hours at the main branch
will require additional staffing
and that many of the staff from
the Safeway branch should be
hired at the main branch.
“Right now we have a num-
ber of on-call positions at
Safeway that are not full-time
employees,” he explained.
“Those positions will likely be
eliminated, but the four full-
time positions will be trans-
ferred over to the main
branch.”
Green added that this
employment estimate was not
yet finalized and was based on
a preliminary staffing model.

John Murphey defined the
action they were about to take.
“The planning commission
can only make our decision by
ORS statute, on the city code,
and the comprehensive 2020
plan,” he said. “At times we can
make decisions based on our
feelings and are able to talk
with people about issues. Those
are called legislative issues. ...
All issues that have been before
us tonight were quasi-judicial.
We can only make our decision
based on the code and the plan.
… It’s based on purely facts
and codes.”
With city codes and state reg-
ulations in mind, the Planning
Commission approved the con-
