with regard to jurisdictional roles within the Metro Plan Boundary and any future Urban Reserve area. <br />These include the ability of land owners to request plan amendments if they are included in an urban <br />reserve, and how agencies should provide services in urban reserve areas. In addition, some County <br />Planning Commission members have expressed concerns and raised questions about the urban reserve <br />process, and the benefits or drawbacks of engaging in it. <br />A Lane County Planning Commission work session on urban reserves was held in September 2017 to <br />begin the process of understanding the issues and potential impacts on County interests. Ongoing <br />updates and work sessions will continue throughout the life of the project. In order to achieve urban <br />reserves, issues and questions will ultimately need to be resolved, with specific service questions <br />addressed in intergovernmental agreements. <br />Constraints <br />The following are potential factors that may limit our ability to carry out the project or to fully achieve <br />the project goals. <br /> <br />Past issues related to jurisdictional authority, representation, UGB expansion and annexation have <br />strained relationships between the City and some County residents, both inside the UGB (for example in <br />River Road and Santa Clara) and outside (for example in the expansion study areas in the Russel <br />Creek/LCC basin, Bailey Hill/Gimpl Hill area, and Crest/Chambers area). Planning staff is continually <br />striving to build trust and lay the foundation for collaboration with residents and County officials, most <br />recently through the UGB expansion study process and the River Road Santa Clara planning process. <br />City relationship to neighborhood residents, neighborhood associations, and Homebuilders <br />Association <br />Envision Eugene engaged thousands of Eugene residents, and the resulting community vision is widely <br />supported. But as the vision begins to be implemented, and in this case applied to a longer time frame <br />and bigger population and geographic study area, it will be tested. All of the issues that were surfaced <br />during the early Community Resource Group process may come up again, such as how to accomplish <br />compatible infill housing in existing neighborhoods, how to design and fund development along key <br />corridors, and how to increase good paying jobs and affordable housing options. It will be critical to <br />clarify the project scope and what is or is not included in urban reserves planning. For the most part, <br />assumptions made about future growth during Envision Eugene will need to be kept constant for urban <br />reserves to complete the project in the allotted timeframe. Thorough analysis and updating, if <br />necessary, of growth assumptions and trends will occur once we have the first growth monitoring <br />report. Neighborhood associations, residents, and the Homebuilders Association are examples of groups <br />that have a stake in the outcome and will be critical to nurture relationships with for a good project <br />outcome. <br />Adequate staffing and funding <br />The project has an ambitious timeline and substantial funding, but there are many unknowns in this <br />new-to-Eugene process and many other priorities <br />planning will require rigorous and lengthy analysis. It will also require attention from city staff across the <br />organization, as well as inter-agency partners. These staff will have competing demands on their time <br />16 | Page <br /> <br />
