Appz:ovarof 12 Principles foi-- Development or Metro Area Transportation Plan Tabled from 3-10-76 meeting. Letter and report distributed at that time. e Mr. Murray expressed trouble with the statement in Principle 7 that the plan will "address, only those issues which can be agreed upon as valid regional concerns by Eugene, Springfield, and Lane County.". That statement further noted that. co~sensus was reached only for auto and transit modes. He wondered then what would happen to Eugene's responSe that the plan call for bike, pedestrian and paratransit planning as well. Mr. Bill Guenzler, LCOG, explained there is no intent to ignore the goals set by Eugene. . Modes planned for do reflect the demand reduction which simulates the decisions of Eugene and Lane County. Concerns of a particular jurisdiction would best be addressed by that juriSdiction, and he noted Eugene has made progress in that direction already. He added there is concern of a regional staff such as LCOG spending time on matters related to one jurisdiction but not particularly regional in scope. . Mr. Murray does not feel, though, that Council intended Eugene to address its goals on its own but rather that they would be more directly provided for in the regional plan. Mr. Guenzler assured Mr. Murray no elements are ignored, but the idea is that speci~ic facili ty planning should not be done in a regional context ~ Mrs. Shirey said it seems some coordination is necessary. will it do the job for a juriSdiction to address concerns on its own, she wondered. e 4/12/76 - 16 18'1
