Attachment A <br /> <br /> Alternative Language Options for <br /> Proposed Metro Plan Growth Management Policy 15.f. <br /> <br />Both Springfield and Eugene Planning Commissions had concern over the <br />specificity of the district described in the proposed new Metro Plan, Growth <br />Management, Policy 15.f. Bo, th Commissions recommended limiting the <br />proposal to a single countywide district. The Springfield Planning <br />Commission suggested the language in Alternative 1 to alleviate potential <br />problems if not all of the cities in the county are included in the district. <br /> <br />In response to the Eugene Planning Commission (EPC) request, staff have <br />developed alternative language for your consideration that might address the <br />EPC concerns regarding a limitation on the public safety services the County <br />could add in the context of the "including but not limited to" phrase of the <br />proposed policy amendment. The EPC recommended deleting or modifying <br />that phrase. <br /> <br />The EPC understood that the County should not be limited to those services, <br />most of which are required by State Statute. They recognize that there are <br />additional and desirable public safety services that augment the mandated <br />services. They understand that the proposed language allows the non- <br />mandated services, but are concerned that the language does not prevent the <br />County from adding additional services, including non public safety services. <br /> <br />Staff provide you the following four alternatives for the proposed Metro Plan, <br />Growth Management, Policy 15 f. amendment recommended by the Lane <br />County Planning Commission, if the LCPC language is unacceptable. <br />(Bracketed language would be deleted, underlined language would be added.) <br />The alternatives present increasing limitations on creation of a public safety <br />service district within the Metro Plan boundary. The amended language in <br />Alternative 1 reflects the Eugene and Springfield Planning Commissions' <br />concern regarding the single district and is also included in the subsequent <br />alternatives. <br /> <br />1. Not withstanding the above provisions of this policy and all other related <br /> policies and text in this Plan, a single district or zone of benefit within the <br /> county may be created and maintained to provide preventive and reactive <br /> public safety services, including but not limited to, adult and youth <br /> <br /> <br />
