Other than that, he said he thought it was a worthy cause to try to maintain the area to the best of our abilities. Councilors took a five-minute break at 9 p.m. III. RIVER ROAD/SANTA CLARA URBAN FACILITIES PLAN Assistant City Manager Dave Whitlow introduced the item. Cynthia Pappas, of the Lane Council of Governments, presented the staff report. She said the council was bei ng asked to adopt the fi na 1 three elements of the Ri ver Road/Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan dealing with transportation, public facilities and services, and environmental design. She said the council also was being asked to readopt the entire urban facilities plan package, adding that a copy of the plan was included in the items under separate cover. Ms. Pappas noted that the Sanitary Sewer Element of the urban facilities plan had been adopted in May 1984, the Land Use Element had been adopted in May 1985, and the final three elements first were adopted in April 1986. Following adoption of those three elements by the City of Eugene, they had been the subject of a public hearing before the Lane County Board of Commissioners. Ms. Pappas said the commissioners had referred the Police and Fire Policies section of the Public Facilities and Services Element to the Metropolitan Policy Committee (MPC) and the RR/SC Citizen Advisory Team for reworking. She said those groups had recommended two versions of policy language, and the board in April 1987 had adopted the Citizen Advisory Teamls recommendation regarding fire protection in the event of incorporation, while affirming the MPCls recommendation regarding fire protection in the event of annexation. The board also adopted the MPCls recommendation for police protection in the event either of incorporation or annexation. Ms. Pappas said the County had taken those actions with the understanding that cities most likely would adopt MPCls recommendations in the event of incorporation. Those recommendations included providing fire protection service "comparable to that of the cities of Eugene and Springfield," while the Ci t i zen Advi sory Team had recommended provi di ng servi ce "comparabl e to that of the Santa Clara Rural Fire Protection District."
