This week’s City Club program features the candidates for Lane County Commissioner, District 3 (South Eugene), Joel Iboa and Laurie Trieger.
District 3 of Lane County (South Eugene) is the smallest in geographic size, but has the largest population of the five county districts. Six-term Lane County Commissioner Pete Sorenson is not standing for re-election, and the race for County Commissioner Position 3 – South Eugene may well be a close one. It features two candidates with deep community roots and broad experience. Joel Iboa works at Causa, an immigrant rights organization. His priorities are housing and homelessness, community safety, and environmental justice. Laurie Trieger works for Sponsors, Inc., and says public health, climate change, housing and homelessness and accessibility of government are among her priorities.
