EXHIBIT E Exhibit E to Attachment 1 (1) Process for Government Initiated Plan Amendments. A different process, timeline, or both, than the processes and timelines specified in LC 12.230, 12.235 or 12.240 above, may be established by the governing bodies of Eugene, Springfield and Lane County for any government initiated Metro Plan amendment. Finding48 A different process or timeline as specified in LC 12.230, 12.235, or 12 .240 may be established by the governing bodies if they deem worthy. (2) Time Frame Waiver. The time frames prescribed in connection with Type II Metro Plan amendment processes can be waived if the applicant agrees to the waivers. Finding 49: This is not a Type II amendment, therefore this criteria is not applicable. (3) Bar on Re- submittal. No privately initiated Metro Plan amendment application submitted to Lane County shall be considered if a substantially similar or identical plan amendment has been denied within the year prior to the application date unless the facts forming the basis for the denial have changed so as to allow approval. The Planning Director shall determine whether the proposed amendment is substantially similar or identical after providing the applicant with an opportunity to comment on the matter in writing. Finding50 This is the first time this amendment has been proposed, therefore this criteria is not applicable. (4) Relationship to Refinement Plan Amendments When a Metro Plan amendment is enacted that requires an amendment to a refinement plan diagram or map for consistency, the Metro Plan diagram amendment automatically amends the refinement plan diagram or map if no amendment to the refinement plan text is involved. When a Metro Plan diagram amendment requires a refinement plan diagram or map and text amendment for consistency, the Metro Plan and refinement plan amendments shall be processed concurrently. Finding51 No changes to a Metro plan Refinement Plan are being proposed. (5) Severability of Plan Amendment Adoption Actions When identical action is required of two or three governing bodies on a Metro Plan Amendment, and the amendment is a number of different plan changes, the following applies. Unless otherwise specified in the adoption ordinance of any of the governing bodies, action by all of the governing bodies to adopt some but not all of the plan changes shall result in the adoption of the changes for which there is consensus and the forwarding of only those changes for which there is not consensus to the Metropolitan Policy Committee under LC 12.235(5) and 12.240(4) above.
