~e no strategy has been devised yet. Mr. Lindberg noted that the council has a special interest in community schools. Mr. Gleason noted that the City funds $80,000 for community schools and the school district funds $250,000. Mr. Lindberg stated that he would like to see community schools maintained if at all possible, even if schools are closed. Ms. Wooten stated that the Com- munity Schools Coordinating Committee has begun discussions. Without a school program, it becomes a community center, not a community school. IX. LANE COUNTY'S LCDC COMPLIANCE ACKNOWLEDGMENT--INFORMATIONAL (background information distributed) e Mr. Gleason introduced John Porter, Planning. Mr. Porter stated that the County plan is not adequate to meet LCDC goals and guidelines. A summary was sent out from the LCDC staff and there are serious deficiencies. The City will help them work this out. The City is a party in the industrial triangle area and will be available to answer questions. Mr. Gleason and Steve Burkett, Springfield City Manager, met with the LCDC director yesterday to talk about the acknowledgment process of the Metro Plan. The City's plan is not scheduled to be considered for compliance until June. We are asking them to speed up the process or at least give staff comments. The plan was submitted to them in July 1980. Several issues will be discussed at the County's acknowledgment hearing. There are five major issues: Mahlon Sweet Airport, River RoadlSanta Clara urbanization, appropriate jurisdiction of public facilities and services, agricultural lands, and industrial lands. The City is hoping that LCDC actions will help the City work with the County on land use issues. Transportation, industrial development, and other strategies are needed. Mr. Lindberg asked what role the City will play to help the County. Mr. Porter responded that they will help in the data-gathering process. They are trying to develop a better inventory of the land. There are eight goals. The City staff is working through L-COG and they are also working on the subdivisions within the urban growth boundary. Ms. Schue asked how long it will take for the County to get its work done. Mr. Porter responded it would take from one to three years. Citizens must be involved in many of the policy decisions. Stan Long stated that that is in litigation. The LUBA Board found goal violations in the industrial triangle. The siting of industrial lands was determined and the County has to go for oral argument which will be tomorrow. He urged the council to attend if possible. Mayor Keller stated that Ms. Miller would be attending and anyone else wishing to go could contact Stan Long. Mr. Lindberg asked what impact Junction City's proposal for a service dis- trict in the industrial triangle would have. Stan Long stated they had made this decision before reading the LUBA decision. e MINUTES--Eugene City Council February 11, 1981 Page 12
