Sabrina Carrillo+FollowWhy Amazon’s Eugene plan matters for everyoneAmazon’s proposed warehouse near Eugene Airport isn’t just about a big building—it’s about the future of city services we all rely on. With Eugene’s budget stretched thin, new tax revenue from Amazon could help keep libraries open, pools running, and public safety funded. Sure, there are concerns about jobs, automation, and traffic, but the alternative is an empty field and more cuts to the services that make Eugene livable. It’s a tough call: do we accept Amazon’s impact for the sake of our community’s needs, or hold out for something better that may never come? What do you think Eugene should prioritize? #Safety #Eugene #Amazon00Share
