We Thank John Jordan-Cascade for his work in getting the website set up using Word Press! We hope that this new website will usher in a new dynamic and energetic era for the council’s work.

We have been invigorated by our work with the City of Eugene’s Sustainability Commission and the Climate and Energy Project, and are looking forward to NEXT WEEK’s Food Security Town Hall Meeting at Harris Hall in the Lane County Public Building at 8th and Oak.

All the councilors have been added to the website as Authors, so, Councilors, get working on our common venture!
