<br />M E M 0 RAN DUM <br /> <br />e April 8, 1985 <br /> <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br />SUBJ: <br /> <br />Mayor And Council <br /> <br />Planning Department <br /> <br />I-I SPECIAL INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT REVISIONS - CA 85-2 <br /> <br />I. BACKGROUND <br /> <br />Issues of economic diversification and the level of inventory of industrial <br />land were major considerations in developing the Eugene-Spingfield <br />Metropolitan Area General Plan. As a result of those concerns, about 1,000 <br />acres of land were identified for "Special Light Industrial" development. Of <br />that total, about 700 acres, contained in five separate sites, are located <br />west of Interstate Highway-5. All of this property is annexed to the City of <br />Eugene, zoned I-I, Special Industrial, and serviced, i.e., all 700 acres are <br />development-ready. <br /> <br />The I-I Di stri ct, adopted by the Council in February 1982 after 1 engthy <br />public review and testimony, was intended to implement the Special Light <br />Industrial concept. At the time of the District's adoption, the Council <br />directed that a subsequent review of the I-I District be conducted. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />As a result of that direction, in January, 1985 the staff initiated <br />discussions about possible I-I District revisions with representatives of the <br />Chamber's Planning and Land Use Subcommittee, the City.s Business Assistance <br />Team and the Eugene-Springield Metropolitan Partnership. The intent of these <br />discussions was to gain insights into the I-I District's effect on potential <br />business sitings at Light Industrial Sites. As a result of those discussions, <br />the staff proposed to the Planning Commission a series of changes to the I-I, <br />Special Industrial District. <br /> <br />II. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION <br /> <br />On March 12, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on proposed <br />revisions to the I-I District. No oral testimony was presented, but the <br />Commission did receive written testimony from the Chamber Planning and Land <br />Use Subcommittee (included under separate cover). In summary, the testimony: <br /> <br />1. Supported the proposed changes to the I-I District; <br /> <br />2. Suggested further clarification of the provision for "regional <br />headquarters" Section 9.443 (f); and <br /> <br />3. Suggested further review of the I-I District in one or two <br />years, after first determining if there has been sufficient <br />industrial activity in Special Light Industrial Sites to warrant <br />further analysis. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Based on testiomy presented on this issue, and its own deliberations, the <br />Commission unanimously voted to recommend to the City Council changes to the <br />I-I District, as outlined in the proposed changes included under separate <br />
