· . APPENDIX Ab <br /> PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE METRO PLAN <br /> (Version currently before the elected officials as apart of Periodic Review) <br /> <br /> G. Public Facilities and Services Element <br /> <br /> This Public Facilities and Services Element provides direction for the future provision of <br /> urban facilities and services to planned land uses within the Metro Plan Plan Boundary <br /> (Plan Boundary). <br /> <br /> The availabi!ity of public facilities and services is a key factor influencing the location <br /> and density of future development. The public's investment in, and scheduling of, public <br /> facilities and services are a major means of implementing the Metro Plan. As the' <br /> population of the Eugene-Springfield area increases and land development patterns <br /> change over time, the demand for urban services also increases and changes. These <br /> changes require that service providers, both public and private, plan for the provision of <br /> services in a coordinated manner, using conSistent assumptions and projections for <br /> population and land use. <br /> <br />The policies in this element complement Metro Plan Chapter II-A, Fundamental <br />Principles, and Chapter II-C, Growth Management. ConSistent with the principle of <br />compact urban growth prescribed in Chapter II, the policies in this element call for future <br />urban water and wastewater services to be provided exclusively within the urban growth <br />boundary (UGB). This policy direction is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 11: <br />-Public Facilities and Services, "To plan and develop a timely, orderly and efficient <br />arrangement of public facilities and services to serve as a framework for urban and rural <br />development." O~i urban lands, new development-must be served by at least the <br />. minimum level of key urban services and facilities at the time develoPment is completed <br />and, ultimately, by a full range of key urban services and facilities. On rural lancls within <br />the Plan Boundary, development must be served by rural levels of service. Users of <br />facilities and services in rural areas are spread Out geographically, resulting in a higher <br />per-user cost for some services and, of[en, in an inadequate revenue base to support a <br />higher level of service in the future. Some urban facilities may be located or managed <br />outside the urban growth boundary, as allowed by state law, but only to serve <br />development within the UGB. <br /> <br />.Urban facilities and services within the UGB are provided by the City of Eugene, the City <br />of Springfield, Lane County, Eugene Water & Electric Board CEWEB), the Springfield <br />'Utility Board (SUB), the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC), <br />electric cooperatives, and special service districts. Special service districts provide <br />schools and bus service, and, in some areas outside the cities, they provide water, electric, <br />fire service or parks and recreation service. This element provides guidelines for special <br />service districts in line with the compact urban development fundamental principle of the <br />Metro Plan. <br /> <br /> · Appendix Ab Pagel 1-28 <br /> <br /> <br />
