Revised Proposed Amendment Procedure, 1990 Plan - July 22 memo and resolution distributed to Council from Planning Department explaining that Springfield has adopted a set of procedures that differs from those adopted by Eugene. Springfield preferred and has adopted the procedure of an appeals board composed of the Mayor of Eugene, the Mayor of Springfield and the Chairman of the Board of the Lane County Commissioners rather than having LCOG arbitrate when there was disagreement between Eugene, Springfield and Lane County on amending the 1990 Plan. Planner Jim Saul said staff recommends adopting the change adopted by Springfield. Manager referred to the resolution which states that amendments to the plan shall be forwarded to LCOG for ratification and incorporation into the metro plan. He wondered if that is automatic to meet federal requirements. Mr. Saul said that LCOG plays a vital function in development of the 1990 Plan. More important, he said, is the fact that the county and cities have delegated the coordinating function to LCOG under S.B. 100. Third, it ties LCOG to adopting what the jurisdictions want rather than having each one adopt something independently. Comm Mr. Haws moved seconded by Mr. Hamel to adopt the resolution amending 7/28/76 Eugene's Plan amendment procedure as proposed. Motion carried unanimously. Approve J.
