The subject property is not within the boundaries of the Willamette River Greenway. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 15 does not apply. Goals 16 through 19 - Estuarine Resources. Coastal Shore lands. Beaches and Dunes. and Ocean Resources: There are no coastal, ocean, estuarine, or beach and dune resources related to the property affected by these amendments. Therefore, these goals are not relevant and the amendment will not affect compliance with Statewide Planning Goals 16 through 19. B. Consistency with applicable provisions of the Metro Plan (1) Nodal Development Designation "Nodal development is a mixed-use pedestrian-friendly land use pattern that seeks to increase concentrations of population and employment in well-defined areas with good transit service, a mix of diverse and compatible land uses, and public and private improvements designed to be pedestrian and transit oriented. " The Metro Plan Diagram shows the subject site within a nodal development area. The above Plan description of nodal development areas is implemented through the /ND Nodal Development overlay zone in the Eugene Land Use Code, which the applicant also proposed to maintain. The Willakenzie Area Plan land use diagram established a nodal development overlay zone for the Crescent Avenue Nodal Development Area (including the subject site and Crescent Village to the north). The applicant proposes to maintain the area's /ND overlay zone. The proposal to change the refinement plan designation and zoning of the property is consistent with the Metro Plan's description of nodal development areas.
