URBAN GROWTH BOUNDARY <br />Eugene Urban Growth Boundary <br />Introduction <br />The Eugene urban growth boundary identifies the land that is likely to be <br />needed by Eugene's growing population over a specific period of time. <br />Eugene's urban growth boundary, adopted by Eugene and Lane County, is <br />expected to accommodate Eugene's land needs through 2032. It includes <br />all land inside Eugene's city limits and some additional land that is likely to <br />annex to the City over time. Land located between the city limits and the <br />urban growth boundary, an area referred to as the "urban transition area," <br />will remain in rural use until the land is annexed to the City. <br />The location of the Eugene urban growth boundary was identified with <br />careful consideration of the forecasted population growth for the City of <br />Eugene and the corresponding need for additional employment <br />opportunities, parks, schools and public infrastructure. The City's Growth <br />Monitoring Program, discussed in the Administration and Implementation <br />chapter of this comprehensive plan, will be used to evaluate new <br />information for purposes of determining whether future adjustments to <br />the urban growth boundary are needed. <br />The Employment Land Supply Study, located at Appendix B to this <br />comprehensive plan, includes a supply and demand analysis of buildable <br />employment land within the Eugene urban growth boundary area for the <br />Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan I July 2017 UGB-1 <br />
