The Metro Plan Housekeeping Revisions do not affect the provision of facilities or services. This proposal does not change project lists in the December 2001 Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area Public Facilities and Services Plan (PFSP). Therefore, the Metro Plan Housekeeping Revisions do not affect Metro Plan consistency with Statewide Planning Goal 11. Goal 12--Transportation: To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and economic transportation system. The following findings of consistency with Goal 12 pertain to the Metro Plan Housekeeping Revisions, Metro Plan Chapter III-C, and the Metro Plan Diagram. The proposals will not significantly affect any of the roads in the metropolitan area. The proposals will not affect the road projects in the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area Transportation System Plan (TransPlan). TranPlan was adopted in the fall of 2001, effective November 31, 2002, and published as the December 2001 TransPlan. Section 660-012-0060 of the Transportation Planning Rule requires evaluation of a comprehensive plan amendment to determine if the amendment significantly affects a transportation facility. The Metro Plan amendments and updates do not: change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; change standards implementing a functional classification system; allow types or levels of land uses which would result in levels of travel or access which are inconsistent with the functional classification of a transportation facility; or reduce the level of service of a facility below the minimum acceptable level identified in TransPlan. The Metro Plan Diagram updates in the Eugene UGB better reflect adopted refinement plans, zoning actions, and development approvals, which have already been through a goal analysis and acknowledged by DLCD. Therefore, the amendments will not affect Metro Plan compliance with Goal 12. The Metro Plan Diagram amendments in the Springfield UGB and amendments to remove Urban Reserves will not significantly affect a transportation facility and will not affect compliance with policies or projects contained in TransPlan, a functional refinement to the Metro Plan, acknowledged as complying with the requirements of Goal 12. Therefore, the amendments will not affect Metro Plan compliance with Goal 12. Goal 13mEnergy Conservation: To conserve energy. The following findings of consistency with Goal 13 pertain to the Metro Plan Housekeeping Revisions, Metro Plan Chapter III-C, and the Metro Plan Diagram. This Goal is not relevant because the amendments do not involve any additional development that would consider energy conservation systems, or the recycling and reuse of vacant and Exhibit D: Findings in Support of Adopting Ordinance for the Eugene-Springfield Page 12 of 15 Metropolitan Plan (Metro Plan) Housekeeping Revisions, Metro Plan Chapter III-C, and the Metro Plan Diagram.
