In the <br />past, one such method to formalize neighborhood voice and vision was <br />refinement plans. Eugene should either create new refinement plans for all <br />neighborhoods or create a "next generation", adaptive process that <br />identifies neighborhoods needs, vision and goals and formally codifies them <br />in the planning processes and land use decisions. <br /> <br />Motion B (Passed 11-0) <br /> <br />The NLC recommends the Planning Division's FY 07 work plan reflect <br />preservation of the natural environment in neighborhoods as a high priority, <br />encompassing a broad spectrum of tasks and projects, including: GoalS <br />projects, watershed and wetlands protection, storm water management, tree <br />preservation, parks and open space, Willamette Greenway, and others. <br /> <br />Thank you, <br /> <br />Rob Handy <br />David Hinkley <br /> <br />NLC Co-Chairs <br /> <br />1 <br />
