I love the new appearance of 11th.  That area has clearly suffered from poorly planned growth.

My little town of 10,000 took about 5years to convert to buried cable and it made a huge difference.   But it is expensive.  

The council needs to find ways to be attractive to new business with above average wages.   Even then the Eugene council appears to lack a strong voice for economic development.   The community needs wealth creation  - then we can look at our priorities for new projects not cutting funding for current needs
