We the undersigned concerned citizens, do hereby request that Eugene City Council purchase the 26 Acre Beverly property at the end of West Amazon Drive at Martin Way. This property features three Amazon creek headwaters streams as well as beautiful, relatively unspoiled and undeveloped forest land, wetland and riparian areas. We are concerned about the imminent clear cutting of the forest for roads and houses and the subsequent erosion which will follow. This valuable natural resource area is important for the water quality of the Amazon Creek, habitat for plants and animals as well as for the potential open space area which future generations of Eugenians can enjoy.
Why is this important?
To protect our water quality, watershed, and habitat, and to preserve this vital natural area for all of the city of Eugene and its future generations.
