• <br /> • The Administrative Rule for Statewide Planning Goal 9-(OAR 660 Division 9) requires that the city <br /> `[p]rovide for at least an adequate supply of sites of suitable sizes, types, -location, and service levels <br /> for a variety of industrial and commercial uses consistent with plan policies[.]" Among other <br /> things, the rule requires that cities complete an `Economic Opportunities Analysis." OAR 660-009 - <br /> 0015. Based on the Economic Opportunities Analysis, cities are to prepare Industrial and <br /> Commercial Development Policies. OAR 660 - 009 -0020. Finally OAR 660 - 009 -0025 requires that <br /> • cities designate industrial and commercial lands sufficient to meet short and long term needs. OAR <br /> 660- 009 - 0010(2) provides that the detailed planning requirements imposed by OAR 660 Division 9 <br /> apply "at the time of each periodic review of the plan (ORS 197.712(3))." <br /> The proposed amendment will not make any changes to the existing land currently designated <br /> commercial. Thus, the amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 9. <br /> Goal 10 - Housing: To provide for the housing needs of the citizens of the state. • <br /> Goal 10 requires that communities plan for and maintain an inventory of buildable residential land <br /> • for needed housing units. • <br /> • <br /> The proposed amendment will re- designate approximately 63 acres from Parks and Open Space to <br /> Residential, thereby increasing the City's current supply of residential lands. Since the subject <br /> property is not currently designated for residential use and is not included in the documented supply <br /> of "buildable land" that is available for residential development as inventoried in the acknowledged <br /> 1999 Residential Lands Study, the proposed amendment will increase the City's existing inventory <br /> of land that is available for residential development. Therefore, the amendments are consistent with <br /> Statewide Planning Goal 10. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> Goal 11 - 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. • <br /> A portion of the area affected by the amendments is located outside the city limits but inside the <br /> Eugene- Springfield Urban Growth Boundary. The existing level of public facilities and service is <br /> adequate to serve the needs of existing and future development, as public facilities are available or <br /> can be extended to the subject property. While a portion of the subject property is located outside <br /> City limits, annexation is a requirement for any new use that would generate an additional need for <br /> urban facilities and services. Public facilities and services are available for the purpose of <br /> annexation. The provision of these amendments does not affect the planning or development of <br /> future public facilities or services. Therefore, the amendments are consistent with Statewide <br /> Planning Goal 11. <br /> Goal 12 - Transportation: To provide and encourage a safe, convenient and economic <br /> transportation system. <br /> • Goal 12 is implemented through the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR), as defined in Oregon • <br /> Administrative Rule OAR 660 - 012 -0000, et seq. The Eugene - Springfield Metropolitan Area <br /> Transportation Plan (TransPlan) provides the regional policy framework through which the TPR is <br /> • <br /> • <br /> Findings of Consistency <br /> Page 4 <br />
