Eugene Ordinance Exhibit B [Lane County Ordinance Exhibit B] (3) The proposed amendment would be consistent with the remaining portions of the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan. The Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan does not, before this action, include text related to the supply or demand of residential land within the Eugene UGB. The amendments made by this ordinance present the first text of that nature and are consistent with the rest of the Plan. (4) The proposed amendment would not result in a deficit in the city's needed supply of employment or residential land, based on the most recently adopted and acknowledged employment land study or residential land study. The amendments made by this ordinance adopt the City's first Eugene -only residential land study (the Envision Eugene Residential Land Supply Study). This new study will be used to determine whether future Plan amendments are consistent with this criterion. As demonstrated in the Residential Land Study, itself, the BLI adopted in its Part V establishes a supply of residential land for the 2012-2032 planning period and does not result in a deficit.
