Therefore, the proposed Metro Plan amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 10. Goal 11 - Public Facilities and Services: To plan and develop a timely, orderly and efficient arrangement of public facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural development. The Downtown Plan area is located in the city limits and is served by public facilities in which the existing level of service is adequate to serve the needs of existing and future development. Therefore, the proposed Metro Plan amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 11. Goal 12 - Transportation: To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and economic transportation system. Goal 12 is implemented through the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR, OAR 660-012). The Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area Transportation Plan (TransPlan) provides the regional policy framework through which the TPR is enacted at the local level. TransPlan was acknowledged for compliance with Goal 12 in 2001. Under the state TPR, a local government must provide a form of mitigation described in OAR 660-012-0060(1) when the local government adopts amendments to land use regulations which significantly affect a transportation facility. A land use regulation amendment "significantly affects a transportation facility" if it meets one of the following four factors identified in 660-012-0060(2): (a) Changes the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; The proposed Metro Plan amendments do not change the functional classification of any transportation facility. (b) Changes standards implementing a functional classification system; The proposed Metro Plan amendments do not change the standards for implementing a functional classification system. (c) Allows types or levels of land uses which would result in levels of travel or access which are inconsistent with the functional classification of a transportation facility; or The proposed Metro Plan amendments do not allow types or levels of uses which would result in levels of travel or access which are inconsistent with the functional classification of a transportation facility.
