EXHIBITS Page 48 <br />Major Influences <br />The Metro Plan Diagram reflects the influence of many sources. Particularly noteworthy are the <br />following: <br />The Land Conservation and Development Commission's (LCDC) Statewide Planning <br />Goals, as published in April 1977, and subsequently amended. <br />2. The 1990 Plan, predecessor of this Eleeti et4the Metro Plan; particularly the concept of <br />compact urban growth. <br />1 3. Adopted neighborhood refinement and city-specific plans. <br />4. Adopted special purpose and functional plans. <br />5. Information generated through preparation of working papers (1978 and 1981) used in <br />the early pr-eeess. Those papers are on file in the planning departments of Eugene, <br />Springfield, and Lane County, as well as the Lane Council of Governments (LCOG). <br />Their most significant provisions are contained in the Technical Supplement of the Metro <br />Plan, printed and available under separate cover. Subjects examined include public <br />services and facilities; environmental assets and constraints, including agricultural land, <br />the economy, housing, and residential land use, and energy, all in terms of existing <br />conditions and projected demand. <br />Land Use Designations <br />Land use designations shown in the Metro Plan Diagram are depicted at a metropolitan scale. <br />Used with the text and local plans and policies, they provide direction for decisions pertaining to <br />appropriate reuse (redevelopment), urbanization of vacant parcels, and additional use of <br />underdeveloped parcels. Since its initial adoption in 1982, the Metro Plan Diagram designations <br />have been transitioning to a parcel-specific diagram. As part of this transition, the boundaries of <br />Plan designation areas within it the m°tr-epe a a UGB are determined on a case-by-case basis, <br />where no parcel-specific designation has been adopted. <br />Certain land uses are not individually of metropolitan-wide significance in terms of size or <br />location because of their special nature or limited extent. Therefore, it is not advisable to <br />account for most of them on the Metro Plan Diagram. The Diagram's depiction of land use <br />designations is not intended to invalidate local zoning or land uses which are not sufficiently <br />intensive or large enough to be included on the Metro Plan Diagram. <br />The Plan designation of parcels in the Metro Plan Diagram is parcel-specific in the following <br />cases: <br />Parcels shown on the Metro Plan Diagram within a clearly identified Plan <br />designation, i.e., parcels that do not border more than one Plan designation; <br />Laurel Ridge Record (Z 15-5) Page 611 <br />
