The city wants to spend about $30 million in the next 5-10 years to shore-up maintenance funding shortages and to take-on yet more park & pool projects, that will in-turn require yet more maintenance.

To raise that kind of money, they'll propose another property tax-funded bond or levy, or both, or increase other taxes or fees such as another fee listed on our ever increasing EWEB bill.

Those plans are just too lofty of a goal especially considering the city manager is funding part of the new city hall cost using general fund revenue.  More taxes and fees will make housing LESS affordable, and Eugene LESS livable.  Rents will increase and housing will get more expensive.

The city acts like our property taxes and EWEB fees are an infinite ATM account, well they're not.
