Land Use Application Review Process <br /> <br /> <br />?Eugene supports clarification of the requirements for determining when a land use <br />application is complete. <br /> <br /> <br />?Eugene supports increasing the time line for city processing of land use applications, <br />especially when the applicant’s proposal is changed substantially during the review process. <br /> <br /> <br />?Eugene supports allowing adopted plan policies to be incorporated by reference in the Land <br />Use Code rather than reprinted in the code. <br /> <br /> <br />?Eugene supports local discretion in standards for needed housing. <br /> <br />D3.
