r r <br />■ ■. <br />The six- to ten -year surpl u -s should be based on the amount of development. over <br />the previous three years. Improved monitoring techniques made possible by the <br />geographic data system should al l.ow such monitoring to occur. The monitoring <br />information should be provided on a jurisdictional basis and on the metropolitan <br />level . <br />In summary, the cities should continually monitor the conversion of urban - <br />i zabl e land to urban and pursue active annexation programs based on local <br />policies and applicable provisions of this Plan including, for example: <br />1. Orderly economic provision of public facilities and services <br />(maintenance and development of capital improvement programs); <br />2. Availability of sufficient land to ensure a supply responsive <br />to demand; <br />3. Compact urban growth, including development within the current <br />urban service area before conversion. of urbanizable lands to <br />urban; and <br />4. Cooperation with other utilities and providers of urban services <br />to ensure - coordination with their respective capital improvement <br />programs.. <br />- Geographic Phasing of Santa Clara, Willow Creek, and East Thurston <br />There are three areas within the urban growth boundary which r'equ i re special <br />consideration for geographic phasing from urbanizabl e to urban land. The <br />first two areas, Santa Clara and willow Creek, are of particular concern to the <br />City of Eugene; the third area, East Thurston, is of particular concern to the <br />City of Springfield. These areas have the following in common: <br />1. They are appropriate for ultimate conversion from urban i zabl e to <br />urban land upon annexation to a. city. <br />2. They are designated primarily for low - density residential use. <br />30 They lack the minimum level of key urban services and those services <br />are not scheduled for at least the next five years. <br />4. They are not needed to meet metropolitan low-den sity residential <br />projected needs for at least the next five years. <br />5 . They represent logical areas for providing public utilities, faci l i -- <br />ties, and services due to either an existing level of unincorporated <br />development (as in Santa Clara) or natural drainage patterns (as in <br />Willow Creek and East Thurston) . <br />II -D-3 <br />
