planning horizon amendments that allows new evidence at the governing body joint hearing and al- <br />lows the governing bodies’ decision to be based on the new evidence as well as the evidentiary record <br />created before the planning commissions. The motion passed unanimously, 6:0 <br /> <br />Mr. Zelenka, seconded by Mr. Poling, moved to establish a process for proposed transportation <br />planning horizon amendments that allows new evidence at the governing body joint hearing and al- <br />lows the governing bodies’ decision to be based on the new evidence as well as the evidentiary record <br />created before the planning commissions. The motion passed unanimously, 6:0. <br /> <br />Responding to a question from Mr. Handy, Mr. Yeiter said the work plan approved by the Land Conservation and <br />Development Commission established a multi-year schedule of tasks that would result in the update of TransPlan <br />(regional transportation system plan) and the Metro Plan. The work plan was scheduled to be completed by 2013. <br /> <br />Mr. Handy noted that the elected officials had discussed whether the next regional transportation plan update would <br />be a major or minor update. It appeared that the work plan might help reconcile some of the different planning <br />horizons for local planning documents, which he thought would be helpful. He asked how else the work plan would <br />impact policy choices related to the integration of land use and transportation. Speaking to the question of <br />integration, Mr. Yeiter noted the existing disconnect between the update schedules for federal and local planning <br />documents. He did not think that the next update would result in all plans being aligned for 20 years, but he <br />anticipated that would occur with the next update. He said the slower actual population growth rate bought the local <br />area some time to achieve that integration. He anticipated that the two planning processes would inform each other, <br />and noted that locally, staff was working with ODOT to integrate local processes with ODOT’s federal planning <br />obligations. <br /> <br />Mr. Stewart, seconded by Mr. Handy, moved to establish a process for proposed transportation <br />planning horizon amendments that allows new evidence at the governing body joint hearing and al- <br />lows the governing bodies’ decision to be based on the new evidence as well as the evidentiary record <br />created before the planning commissions.
