SPECIAL HEAVY INDUSTRIAL METROPOLITAN PLAN AMENDMENTS <br />(AWBREY/MEADOWVIEW) (MA 87-6) <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Susan Brody, Planning Director, introduced the item. Teresa Bishow <br />pres~nted the Planning Department staff report. She stated that in June <br />1987 the City Council initiated a series of amendments to the <br />Metropolitan Plan regarding Special Heavy Industrial land. The proposed <br />amendments include changes to the Economy Element, changes affecting the <br />two existing special heavy industrial areas, and a plan amendment to <br />expand the Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) 200 acres north of Awbrey Lane <br />east of Highway 99 for a special heavy industrial park. <br /> <br />The three local planning commissions conducted a joint public hearing in <br />August, which was continued in September because of the high degree of <br />public interest. The Lane County Planning Commission recommended denial <br />of the amendments by a 5:0 vote. The Springfield Planning Commission <br />also recommended denial of the amendments on a 5:1 vote with exception of <br />the proposal to halt allowance of on-site services at the Enid-Awbrey <br />Special Heavy Industrial area. <br /> <br />The Eugene Planning Commission recommended approval of the changes to the <br />Economy Element 5:2; it voted 4:3 to expand the UGB for a special heavy <br />industrial park; and voted 5:1:1 to adopt changes affecting the existing <br />special heavy industrial sites within the UGB. <br /> <br />If the council approves the amendments, they will be referred to the <br />Springfield City Council and the Lane County Board of Commissioners for a <br />public hearing and action. If the three elected bodies do not reach <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council <br />and Planning Commission <br /> <br />February 8, 1988 <br /> <br />Page 1 <br />
