Provide for adaptable, flexible, and collaborative implementation The initial review of Envision Eugene created the chapters that address Economic Development, Transportation, Administration and Implementation, and the Urban Growth Boundary. Transportation policies are carried over from the 2035 TSP. Transportation System Plan-2017 The Transportation System Plan (TSP) is a 20-year transportation planning document which carries forward many of the PBMP projects that have yet to be funded. The TSP identifies projects, an estimated project cost (if applicable), and time frame (either in a 20-year time frame or future). The TSP identifies 61 projects that occur within or adjacent to the Bethel neighborhood that would potentially be completed in the 20-year horizon of the plan. The projects are classified as: Roadway, Multimodal, Transit, and Rail projects (identified by main corridor, but also including complete street upgrades of existing streets); Pedestrian and Bicycle projects (including access ways, neighborhood greenways, protected bike lanes, on-street bike lanes, shared use path, sidewalk path, grade separated path or sidewalk, and sidewalks); Beyond 20-years projects; Study projects; and Upon-development projects. Of these 61 projects, 19 are classified to occur as development occurs in the Bethel area, meaning as properties develop or redevelop these projects would be completed to serve new development. The timing of these projects is uncertain. Eugene Parks and Recreation System Plan-2018 The guiding goals of the System Plan are to: care for and make the most of what the community has by finding secure funding for maintenance, renovating, and expanding existing community centers and pools, reinvesting in parks in disrepair, reenergizing downtown open spaces; serve the entire community with large regional centers and in areas that are underserved; create more connections to trails, water sources, neighborhoods; and, build better partnerships by leveraging public dollars and private partnerships and partnering with service providers to bring needed assets to neighborhoods and enhance the value of parks and recreation assets. The Eugene Parks and Recreation System Plan divides the city into six geographically based parks- planning districts. The System Plan identifies the existing resources in each of the planning districts, any issues and needs, and specific projects identified for that area. The Bethel neighborhood is one of the six planning districts. April 15, 2019, Work Session – Item 1
