I I D. Update on Progress of Metropolitan Plan Update Jim Farah, Planning, stated that Springfield modified its version of the plan to agree with Eugene so that the two plans are the same. e Yesterday, the Lane County Commissioners took some actions which were a departure from what the EEOC had decided. They were: a portion of the industrial triangle would be included in the urban growth boundary; and policies were included to allow industrial growth outside the urban growth boundary with public or private urban ser- vices. He feels the City should continue with their plan and finalize a letter for the Mayor to submit to LCDC by next week. Mr. Delay asked what the status of unilateral actions is and noted that this is a totally independent action that was not discussed previously. He feels it is important to note that there was a total lack of coordination about these particular decisions. Mr. Farah stated that that is true and it will be noted in the letter from the Mayor. Mayor Keller directed staff to expedite the letter. III. EWEB RESOLUTIONS (maps distributed) Res. No. 3408--A resolution authorizing a property exchange between EWEB and Gordon L. and Delores M. Nelson to establish the Cantrell Road access to the Oak Hill Water Reservoir site. Ms. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Lieuallen, to adopt the resolu- tion. Roll call vote; motion carried unanimously. Res. No. 3409--A resolution authorizing vacation of an EWES easement held e in the name of Mountain State Power Company in the Link Road area. Ms. Smith moved, seconded by Mr. Lieuallen, to adopt the resolu- tion. Roll call vote; motion carried unanimously. Ms. Miller asked why this referred to Mountain State Power Company. Mr. Henry responded that he does not know, unless perhaps EWES granted them an easement and it is no longer needed. Mayor Keller asked the staff to bring back information as to the involvement of Mountain State Power Company. IV. COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF ROLE OF CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT COMMITTEE AS OUTLINED IN ANNUAL REPORT (memo distributed) Mr. Henry stated that two issues are involved: 1) to expand membership by adding two citizens-at-large, one of whom would be {or recently has been) a member of the Neighborhood Leaders Organization, and 2) to what degree the Citizen Involvement Committee must investigate the quality of citizen involvement in the planning process.
