criterion (2)(e), above. <br /> <br />Code Amendments Eugene Code Section 9.8065 requires that the following criteria (in <br />bold and italic) be applied to a code amendment. <br /> <br /> (1) Is consistent with applicable statewide planning goals as adopted by the Land <br /> Conservation and Development Commission. <br /> <br /> Goals 1 through 9. Refer to findings for goals 1 through 9 related to Comprehensive Plan <br /> Diagram amendment criteria in EC 9.7730(3), above. <br /> <br /> Goal 10. The land affected by these amendments was not included in the area's <br /> documented supply of"buildable land" that is available for residential development. The <br /> methodology used to develop the acknowledged 1999 Residential Lands Study excluded <br /> vacant land owned by a public agency and not intended for residential development from <br /> consideration as "buildable land". Publicly owned land is generally not considered <br /> available for residential use. The State Board of Higher Education owns 113 of the 122 <br /> parcels located w~thin the affected area. Nine parcels remain in private ownership. Of <br /> the nine privately-owned parcels, four parcels are in the area proposed for re-designation <br /> to another land use classification. The four parcels total .51 acres in size. <br /> <br /> Goal 10 requires that communities plan for and maintain an inventory ofbuildable <br /> residential land for needed housing units. The Metropolitan Area General Plan - <br /> Residential Land and Housing Element implements Goat 10 by providing background <br /> data and analysis, findings and policies related to the provision of residential lands inside <br /> the urban growth boundary. With the adoption of the 1999 Residential Lands Study, the <br /> following finding was incorporated into the Metro Plan: <br /> <br /> "There ts sufficient buildable residential land within the existing urban growth <br /> bounda~ to meet the future houszng needs of the projected population. ~;n fact, the <br /> 1992 residentzal bzdldable &nd supply exceeds the 1992-2015 residentzal land <br /> demand in all restdential categortes. Assuming land is consumed evenly over the <br /> period, by 1999, there will be at least a 20 year supply of residential la~zd <br /> remaining inside the zirban growth boundary" <br /> <br /> Goals 1 t through 19. Refer to findings, above, for goals 1 l through 19 related to <br /> Comprehensive Plan Diagram amendment criteria in EC 9.7730(3). <br /> <br /> (2) Is consistent with applicable provisions of the Metro Plan and applicable adopted <br /> refinement plans. <br /> <br /> Exhibit D - Page 15 <br /> <br /> <br />
