city has a boundary that extends outside the UGB. He said that cities typically <br />plan for further expansion within the UGB area and the Metro Plan is one step <br />beyond that. He stated the County's proposed solution is to modify the plan <br />boundary to move it back to make it co- terminus to the UGB. He noted there are <br />concerns over the Springfield Utility Board's drinking water supply. He thought <br />there might be similar issues on the Eugene side. <br />Miller reported there are six actions the County is proposing to do to modify the <br />plan boundaries. He added there are no policy amendments they are trying to <br />change in the Metro Plan at this time. He noted this was an issue that came up <br />during the Public Hearing of the Planning Commission. He indicated that they <br />are adopting the Springfield Parcel Specific UGB on the County's Comprehensive <br />Plan maps. He said they are applying plan designations to the lands leaving the <br />Metro Plan. He added that they need to receive some type of plan designation, as <br />currently Lane County carries the Metro Plan designations. He said Lane County <br />is proposing to apply corresponding plan designations within the Rural <br />Comprehensive Plan. He indicated Lane County would amend the Rural <br />Residential Zoning and there are minor rezones that need to occur as part of the <br />process. He added that Lane County would adopt Rural Comprehensive Plan <br />Policies to existing Goal 5 resources. He indicated that within the Metro Plan <br />there are adopted inventories for Goal 5 resources and since those areas will be <br />coming into County control, they would either need to go through a process to re- <br />inventory those lands or to adopt the inventories that have already been <br />established for those areas and apply the existing policies that are within the <br />Metro Plan into the Rural Comprehensive Plan to provide the proper protections <br />for those areas. He added that the net effect would be no change to the treatment <br />of Goal 5 resources in that area. He noted that the sixth proposal will be minor <br />housekeeping code changes necessary so the code reflects the new inventory of <br />Goal 5 resources in the Rural Comprehensive Plan. <br />Deanna Wright, Land Management, reported there are five affected areas equaling <br />80 properties where the zone change would take effect. She said the Metro Plan <br />RR Zoned land contains what is to be considered an outdated version of the Rural <br />Residential Zoning in the Oregon Administrative Rules. She said the changes are <br />necessary to gain consistency with the Goal 14 Rural Residential Oregon <br />Administrative Rules. She added that it is also known as the 1994 Community <br />Rule Change. She indicated that it was updated for the rest of the County zoned <br />RR lands during the County's last periodic review but the Community Rule <br />changes were not applied to the Metro Plan Boundary RR Lands because the <br />change was a Rural Comprehensive Plan Periodic work task. She added the Goal <br />14 Rule compels jurisdictions to come into compliance when they amend their <br />plan provisions that apply to rural lands. She said if the Metro Plan Boundary is <br />to be adjusted; the rezone items will all need to be approved. <br />Miller explained that the final two components to the Rural Comprehensive Plan <br />changes are adopting Goal 5 regulations into the Lane Rural Comprehensive Plan <br />in <br />
