The Planning Commission is holding a series of work sessions on the UGB adoption package, in preparation for a public hearing scheduled for March 7. At this work session, the Commission will begin to review the materials in the adoption package, starting with the jobs, parks and schools materials. Any material not covered during this work session will be discussed at the February 13 work session, along with the residential land materials. BACKGROUND The UGB adoption package is made up of two Eugene ordinances and one Lane County ordinance. Each Commissioner was provided a binder containing the January 2017 draft UGB adoption package materials, which are available to the public at www.EnvisionEugene.org. Staff will walk the Commission through the materials (listed in Attachment A) and answer questions about the various components and where to find different pieces of information. The purpose of the meeting is to familiarize the Commission with the UGB proposal and prepare for the public hearing scheduled for March 7. NEXT STEPS The next work session on the UGB materials is scheduled for February 13. A single public hearing, held jointly with the Lane County Planning Commission, will be held on the entire UGB adoption package on the evening of March 7, in Harris Hall at 7pm. At 6pm, a work session with both the Eugene and Lane County Planning Commissions will be held to provide an overview of the materials and explain the hearing process. No deliberations will take place on March 7. Each Commission will hold its own post-hearing deliberation meetings and form separate recommendations to their respective elected bodies. ATTACHMENTS A.
