Medford's Park and Shop
prog-am should have more of
an overall stability, Medford
City Councilman Fred Bob
Lison told a session of the
League of Oregon Cities last
week.
Robinson, who is financial
ly backing the program, said
h is carrying all the master
leases except for two parking
lots in the downtown Medford
program.
For overall stability the
city should take over all the
master leases and sublet them
back to the parking lot op
erators, Robinson emphasized.
This, he said, would ensure
continuity of the program.
The city councilman said
enabling legislation passed by
the last state legislature
would . alow cities Bancroft
purchase of such parking lots
under an installment payment
program similar to the one
used for financing street,
water and sewer improve
ments.' Not in Black
"We are not in the black
by quite a long ways," Rob
inson said. "Not as , many
shoppers are using the pro
gram as they probably will
be in about six months when
it becomes better known."
"Representatives of the
various cities who heard me
explain the program wanted
me to live in their towns,"
Robinson laughed.
Robinson estimated use of
the Park and Shop lots costs
a shopper ..about, three . cents
an hour compared to the
parking meter rate of usually
five cents an hour,' and 10
cents an hour on some meters.-
' ' , '
Use of Each Meter
, The city councilman said it
is estimated use-of -each city
meter represents $20,000 a
year in gross retail sales re
ceipts. Add 100 parking spac
es to the estimated .800 me
ters in Medford and the boost
in retail sales is: substantial,
he pointed out.
Robinson explained that a
merchant is not required, un
der the Park and Shop plan,
to issue more than one park
ing stamp so the program cost
can be shared more equally
by all the merchants in the
area.' When a customer makes
a purchase-of at least $2 in
one store he. is given, a stamp.
If another purchase of at least
$2 in a . different store is
made, the- customer gets an
other stamp.
"If a customer were given
a stamp for every $2 spent in
one store it would mean stor
es would be paying more than
their far share in the pro
gram," Robinson explained. ;
Downtown Salem , i
The heart of downtown Sa--lenv
has become ' a .. business
blight area because no pro
gressive parking program has
been worked out by the mer
chants there, Robinson said
he hid learned - recently.
Business - property owners
have had; to voluntarily cut
their rental charges a number
of times due to a drop in re-,
tail trade. , ' -

junction with the league
meeting, City Parks and Re
creation Director Robert Ha
worth said the group passed
a resolution favoring creation
of a Dunes National Seashore
park in the Florence-Reeds-port
area.
At the session, Harold E.
Hilliken, chief of the water
supply and swimimng pool
section of the state board of
health, agreed to meet with
an association committee to
review recent revisions in'
the state's regulations on
swimming pools used by. the
public. The revisions are aim
ed primarily at the motel and
hotel type pool operation and
are not practical for city-operated
pools, Haworth said.

Richard C Dunlop, plan
ning supervisor for the parks
and recreation division of the
state highway department,
outlined the duties of Clay
ton Anderson, newly appoint
ed state recreation director.
Anderson was formerly parks
and recreation director in the
Springfield area.
One of his duties will be
to work with communities
where no full time park and
recreation department pro
gram has been established.
He may also be called to as
sist counties and cities who
have parks &nd recreation de
partments in special pro
grams. Anderson is also to estab
lish a regular publication for
the state's professional parks
and recreation personnel. He
will be responsible for the
staff and recreation program
at the state level and hire
lifeguards' for state beaches

Elected Director c ' .
Medford City Manager Rob
ert Duff was elected to the
board of directors when the
new Oregon City Managers'
association conducted its or
ganization meeting during the
League of Oregon Cities con
vention in Portland.
Catherine Lauris, Eugene
city council woman, spoke on
the pedestrian mall operated
in Eugene's downtown shop
ping district. This, she ex
plained, was on a carnival
basis and on a street area
not interrupted by cross-
sxreets. Alleys in the area
were used, also.
; George McAllister, Gresh
am city attorney, explained
how the Bancroft installment
plan could be applied to park
ing lots ' by city administra
tions. A University of Oregon tax
expert told the city officials
that the. property tax is car
rying just about all the bur
den it can take.
