The annexation area, as submitted, includes all of one tax lot and a portion of another tax lot <br />(refer to Maps No. W-A-1 and IV-A-2). The annexation area is currently undeveloped. <br />Annexation to Eugene will allow residential development to occur. <br />The original annexation area and the revised annexation area differ slightly. As a result, it will <br />be necessary to modify the original application to reflect the boundary agreed to by Eugene, Lane <br />County, and the owners' representative (refer to Map No. 1V-A-3 and Exhibit IV-A-]). The <br />annexation area and the UGB are coterminous along the southerly and easterly boundary. <br />The annexation area is designated low-density residential in the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan <br />Area General Plan (Metro Plan) and is zoned AG/WR/UL, agriculture with water resource and <br />urbanizable lands overlays, in Lane County. Upon the effective date of the annexation, the <br />urbanizing fringe overlay will automatically be removed and the annexation area will be zoned <br />AG/WR. A process to change the AG zone to a zoning district consistent with the plan <br />designation will need to be processed through the City of Eugene. <br />BOUNDARY COMMISSION REFERRALS <br />Boundary commission referrals were sent to the Lane County Land Management Division, Lane <br />County Environmental Health Division, and Lane County Board of Commissioners. <br />No other referral responses were received as of September 26, 2007. <br />BOUNDARY COMMISSION STANDARDS - STAFF ANALYSIS <br />In this section of the staff notes, each applicable boundary commission standard is addressed. <br />These standards are derived from ORS 199 and the boundary commission's policy administrative <br />rule (OAR 191, Division 30). <br />Provide an impartial forum for resolution of local jurisdictional questions. Consider the <br />effects of the boundary change on other units of governments. ORS 199.410(l)(b) and <br />199.410(3)(c) <br />This annexation request was filed in accordance with provisions in ORS 199 and was determined <br />to be a valid filing in accordance with OAR 191-006 (adopted administrative rule on boundary <br />commission filing requirements). The item was placed on the boundary commission's agenda <br />for August 2, 2007, and postponed until October 4, 2007. Notice of the boundary commission's <br />public hearing has been published in accordance with Oregon law. Any person may attend and <br />will be given a reasonable opportunity to be heard. <br />The annexation area is not within a fire district or water district. After annexation to the city, <br />water and fire services will be provided by the City of Eugene. <br />Upon annexation, the area will be annexed automatically into the Lane County Metropolitan <br />Wastewater Service District [ORS 199.510(2)(c)). This special district was formed to provide <br />LCLGBC Staff Notes (c Lu 07 - 37) - October 4, 2007 <br />Page IV-A-3 <br />Laurel Ridge Record (Z 15-5) Page 1073 <br />
