.'~ ~'.... e primary purposes of the 1990 Plan was the adoption of an urban service boundary to preserve the farmland outside the urban service boundary. This is required by Statewide Goals. The action requested is that the Council authorize a written report to be submitted to the Board of Commissioners when the amendment comes before them. Ms. Smith asked if the City Planning staff had discussed this with the County Planning staff. Mr. Saul replied that the County Planning staff is taking no position on this subject. Ms. Miller felt that changing 1,800 acres of agricultural land to an industrial designation is a large amount of land. She pointed out that this is not being brought up through the metro process because that would mean that it would have to be adopted by several jurisdictions. That is why it being brought up through the County planning process as if it were not a part of the metropolitan area. It did come up at the MPCC. The County representative proposed an amendment to the Plan which would have the industrial triangle designation changed to industrial. The vote was 5 to 2, the County representatives in the minority. They then decided it was not a metropolitan issue. Ms. Schue, Mr. Obie, and Mr. Lieuallen expressed their desires that the City continue to keep doors open between the City and County and a positive - approach be maintained in their dealings with the County. Ms. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Hamel, to authorize submission of the written report on the consideration of the Long Tom Subarea Plan to the County Commissioners. Motion carried unanimously. XIII.
