Exhibit C Page 2 of 4 street). Consistent with subsection (b), the City of Eugene was under the jurisdiction of a boundary commission as of January 1, 2007. As required by subsection (c), the subject property is within 200 feet of City limits (see map attached to Resolution as Exhibit A, which identifies the subject property relative to city limits). The applicant has demonstrated compliance with subsection (d) by submitting a Warranty Deed dated December 3, 1971 (see Attachment 2 to this Exhibit). EC 9.7825(2) The proposed annexation is consistent with applicable policies in the Metro Plan and in any applicable refinement plans. Complies Findings: The proposed annexation area is within the UGB. Several policies from the Metro Plan generally support this annexation by encouraging compact urban growth to YES NO achieve efficient use of land and urban service provisions within the UGB, including the following: C. Growth Management, Goals, Findings and Policies: Policy 8. Land within the UGB may be converted from urbanizable to urban only through annexation to a city when it is found that: a. A minimum level of key urban facilities and services can be provided to the area in an orderly and efficient manner. b. There will be a logical area and time within which to deliver urban services and facilities. Conversion of urbanizable land to urban shall also be consistent with the Metro Plan. (page II-C-4) Policy 10. Annexation to a city through normal processes shall continue to be the highest priority. (page II-C-4). Policy 16. Ultimately, land within the UGB shall be annexed to a city and provided with the required minimum level of urban facilities and services. While the time frame for annexation may vary, annexation should occur as land transitions from urbanizable to urban. (page II-C-5) The Metro Plan designates the annexation area as appropriate for residential use. The River Road Santa Clara Urban Facilities Plan (RR/SC UFP) is the adopted refinement plan for the subject properties and also designates the area for residential uses. If the annexation is approved, per EC 9.7820(3), the annexation area will remain zoned R-1, and the /UL overlay will be automatically removed from the annexation area. With regard to applicable policies of the RR/SC UFP, the subject property is not within an identified subarea; of the general “Residential Land Use Policies” at Section 2.2, none appear to be directly applicable to the subject request. The “Public Facilities and Services Element” policies of the RR/SC UFP are directed at local government; however, the premise of these policies for the provision of urban services is the assumption that the properties within the UGB will be annexed.
