AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
February 13, 2017
To: Eugene Planning Commission
From: Terri Harding, City of Eugene Planning Division
Subject: Envision Eugene: Urban Growth Boundary Proposal
ISSUE STATEMENT
The City of Eugene is preparing to adopt a new urban growth boundary (UGB), following several years of
community input, technical analysis, revisions and policy check-ins. 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.
On January 30, the Commission began to walk through the materials in the adoption package, starting with
the jobs, parks and schools materials. At this work session, the Commission will pick up where they left off,
completing the jobs, parks, and schools materials review and covering the residential land materials. The
goal of the work session is to familiarize the Commission with the materials that the public will be
commenting on at the public hearing.
BACKGROUND
The UGB adoption package is made up of two ordinances. 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.
NEXT STEPS
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 6 pm, 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.
