(page 6, after note 11 of the Summary and Policies section) II. SUMMARY AND POLICIES Envision Eugene Update In 2008, the city began the process to establish a new Eugene-only UGB and accommodate the next 20 years for growth in our community. As part of that effort, the city identified several opportunities to re- current UGB, which were published in the recommendation Envision Eugene, A Community Vision for 2032 (March 14, 2012). Re-designating land such as portions of the 277 acre Crow Road Study Area, that are more suitable for low density residential or Commercial rather than medium density residential allows the city to accommodate more low density residential inside the current UGB, while promoting higher density housing to redevelop in downtown and core commercial areas, and along key transit corridors, creating a more compact urban development pattern. During 2011-2013, the city worked with property owners and residents of the Crow Road Study need. The city held public meetings and sent surveys and letters to gather feedback on a draft land use concept plan and potential future development standards for the area. The main country feel as the area develops in the future while also ensuring the area is adequately serviced. Standards to address these issues in the future include such topics as tree preservation, building and lot standards, home businesses, and street design, connectivity and safety.

The approved land use map reflects a variety of policies within this special study and other approved policy documents such as the Community Goals and Policies and the Metro Plan. The plan diagram locations for the approximately 92.8 acres of medium density residential and 10.3 acres of commercial in the Crow Road Study Area are based on the discussions at this time. The city recognizes that in the future there may be justification for minor adjustments to the designation and zone boundaries on those properties with more than one designation. The city shall allow for consideration of minor adjustments to the plan designation and zone boundary
