The West University Neighbors association will hold elections for its board of directors at 7 p.m. tonight at the Indigo District on the corner of East 13th Avenue and Oak Street. Anyone who lives in the neighborhood west of the University or is interested in community involvement is encouraged to attend.
Neighborhood landlords will be at the meeting to discuss a city housing code that ASUO Community and Housing Coordinator Scott Lu said the Eugene City Council is expected to pass later this month.
The City Council will hold a public hearing Monday, Nov. 8, to discuss the housing code, which has been an ongoing project for members of the community and of ASUO for many years.
Also on the agenda is an update on the neighborhood mapping project that students in University professor Marc Schlossberg’s Applied Geographic Information Systems and Social Planning class are doing. Students are working with neighborhood residents to create a computerized map of the area using hand-held mapping devices.
The West University Neighbors association, commonly referred to as WUN, was formed last year to combat crime in the neighborhood and increase communication in the mostly student-populated area.
