She noted findings that the criteria have been met are attached as an exhibit to the adopting ordinances. She said that notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners and occupants of property within the airport boundary proposed in the 1999 Eugene Airport Master Plan, all owners and occupants of property within 500 feet of the airport boundary, a list of interested parties provided by the airport and by Lane County staff and others who asked to be added. She noted the level of notice exceeds both state and local code requirements. She said the following additional material was submitted and was distributed to the elected officials: a packet of additional materials submitted by the Eugene Airport (an amendment to Chapter 6 of the plan and addition of a new appendix "D") to address property acquisition and compensation issues raised at the planning commission level, letters from Mike Boggs, Airport Manager to Eugene City Councilors Gary Pape and Gary Rayor, addressing questions that they asked at the Eugene City Council work session held in October. She added they were included within the body of the Eugene City Council agenda packet and were distributed under a cover memo dated January 12, 2000, to the Board of Commissioners and Springfield City Council members. She said there were additional items submitted prior to 5:00 p.m. today and were included on the elected officials' seats.

He stated the Master Plan Update that is being considered tonight, contains no new project concepts. He noted the current plan is approximately ten years old and more detail needs to be put into the plan. He added there were problems with the runway and other projects. He said the FAA identified safety issues associated with Runway 321 that needed to be addressed. He noted the financial plan for capital projects for the next ten to twenty years needed to be refined further so the FAA would participate with the AlP program in that plan. He added they are preparing the plan to respond to local officials' interest in linking the Master Plan with Metro Plan in a comprehensive manner for land use and zoning matters rather than handling them on a piecemeal basis. He reiterated that the plan and the process was carried out in accordance with FAA guidelines and with their oversight. He said the projections in the Master Plan Update are conservative and they follow accepted industry Page 4 -- Joint Elected Officials' Meeting -- January 19, 2000 WP bc/m/00011/T
