Updated Metro Plan Diagram that is based on the Regional Land Infonnation Database (RUD); and <br />3. Revised Metro Plan Chapter III-C: Environmental Resources Element. <br /> <br />In addition, the County Board will use this meeting to conduct a hearing for a County-only Riparian <br />Protection Code Amendment that affects properties outside the UGB (no Eugene action). <br /> <br />These actions are more fully described in the memorandum from LCOG dated January 8, 2004. No <br />action is expected at this meeting. Subsequent separate work sessions will be held with each body of <br />elected officials. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />These amendments will conclude the local requirements on several significant State-mandated periodic <br />review tasks. As with all Metro Plan amendments, all three jurisdictions must agree on the final <br />products. The three planning commissions recommend approval. <br /> <br />Council Action History <br />The City Council approved the periodic review work program in 1995. These proposed actions are . <br />consistent with that work program. In 2001, the elected officials reviewed a study of Metro Urban <br />Reserve areas in light of new state rules and directed staff to remove the Urban Reserve areas from the <br />Metro Plan Diagram because they no longer complied with the new state 1111e. The proposed actions <br />will remove all the Urban Reserve designations. <br /> <br />r <br /> <br />L:\CM0\2004 Council Agendas\,\-l04021 0\.'>0402) OA.doc <br /> <br />(85' <br />
