WORK SESSION: STORMWATER CODE AMENDMENTS <br />Staff: Doug Singer, 541-682-8460, DSinger@eugene-or.gov <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Since time immemorial the Kalapuya people have been the Indigenous stewards to our region, <br />building dynamic communities, maintaining balance with wildlife, and enacting sustainable land <br />practices. This land acknowledgement is a way of resisting the erasure of Indigenous histories and <br />to honor Native communities by inviting truth and reconciliation. Following treaties between 1851 and <br />1855, Kalapuya people were dispossessed of their Indigenous homeland by the United States <br />government and forcibly removed to the Coast Reservation in Western Oregon. As we consider the <br />impacts of colonization, we also acknowledge the strength and resiliency of displaced Indigenous <br />people. The City of Eugene is built within the traditional homelands known as Kalapuya Ilihi. Kalapuya <br />descendants are citizens of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde Community of Oregon and the <br />Confederated Tribes of the Siletz Indians of Oregon, they continue to make contributions in our <br />communities here and across the lands. We express our respect for the inherent political sovereignty <br />of all federally recognized Tribal Nations and Indigenous people who live in the State of Oregon and <br />across the nation. Therefore, the Planning Commission recognizes that what we do today will affect <br />the many generations who will come after us.
