"Stefan Strek (Candidate for mayor of Eugene): Number one: Just, absolutely, I love this city. I grew up here and it’s a certain experience to grow with the city and see stores expand and neighborhoods change. And I really want more people to have the best possible experience of what it means to live in Eugene, whether they’re people who are born here, people who have come here from across the country or around the world, I want this to be the best place possible for everybody. And I’ve got a positive vision for that. I want us to have a fully functional 21st-century city."
