Joint Elected Officials Meeting Minutes <br />September 15, 2008 <br />Page 5 <br />Council held City staff s feet to the fire regarding flexibility. Planning was very challenging <br />because of the global community. He complimented staff for including `flexibility'. <br />Councilor Ballew said staff had done a good job of laying out a program of how to get where we <br />needed to be. There was a lot of public involvement. There would be bumps along the way, such <br />as the land studies and Comprehensive Plan discussions, but this was a starting point and it <br />worked. They all had the ability to convene if they felt they needed to change course. <br />Commissioner Green complimented staff on their work. He asked what would happen when <br />there was no co- adoption of some of the elements. He asked how that would be resolved. <br />Ms. Barry said the code and plan allowed for the MPC for conflict resolution. <br />Commissioner Green said that needed to be discussed because MPC was not the best source for <br />resolution. Some agency needed to step up to facilitate in those situations. He asked if not having <br />a major arterial such as the West Eugene Parkway could be a barrier for development in that <br />area. <br />Ms. Barry said the Board would have to co- adopt. The west Eugene area would be up to the City <br />of Eugene. <br />Mr. Inerfeld from Eugene said before coming to the Eugene City Council and Lane County <br />Commissioners, staff would do an analysis of the impact of removing the West Eugene Parkway <br />(WEP). In order to remove it, they would need to show that they could balance projects. <br />Removing the WEP from the constrained list would help with that, but they had not yet drawn <br />the model to determine the impact. To address removal of the WEP, they would need to address <br />it on the transportation side. They would work with LCOG to run the model. <br />Commissioner Green asked about the schedule for looking at alternatives for west Eugene. He <br />asked if that was more of a land use issue in working with the property owners in that area. <br />Mr. Inerfeld said adopting of the plan amendment to remove the WEP was scheduled for the first <br />quarter of 2009. They may also make some assumptions that the EmX ali in west Eugene <br />would be part of the plan in that area. <br />Commissioner Dwyer further discussed rural reserves and noted that they would be outside of <br />the UGB and the Metro Plan. <br />Ms. Barry said part of the Metro Plan included areas outside of the UGB. Coburg was included <br />in the metro planning. <br />Commissioner Dwyer said that was for transportation only, but not land use planning. The Lane <br />County Board needed to think about how to maintain security of our community outside the <br />wishes of any specific jurisdictions. He viewed the concepts of rural reserves as a County <br />function, not metro. <br />Mayor Piercy said the Eugene Council had reviewed the work plan at their last Council meeting, <br />appreciated the work by staff, and had been supportive of the plan. She also noted that Eugene <br />
