In May 2017, the <br />Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan Employment <br />Land Supply Study replaced the <br />Metropolitan Industrial Lands Inventory, including <br />findings, objectives and policies. Thus, the Land Supply <br />Study is an adopted refinement to the Metro Plan. The <br />metro plan amendment application will not make these <br />plans inconsistent and these findings show that there is <br />an adequate factual base for decisions to be made <br />concerning the proposed amendment. Goal 2 further <br />requires plans be coordinated with the plans of affected <br />governmental units and that opportunities be provided <br />for review and comment by those units. To comply with <br />the Goal 2 coordination requirement, the City will <br />coordinate the review of the amendment with affected <br />governmental units as needed. Therefore, the <br /> <br />amendment is consistent with Statewide Planning Goal <br /> Land Use Diagram Map <br />2. <br /> Whiteaker Refinement Plan <br /> <br /> August 1994 <br /> <br />Goal 3 Agricultural Land: To preserve and maintain agricultural lands. <br /> <br />Goal 3 is not applicable to this amendment, as the subject property and proposed action is located <br />within an acknowledged urban growth boundary and does not affect any agricultural plan designation <br />or use.

The <br />proposed amendment does not create or amend a list of Goal 5 resources, does not allow new uses <br />that could be conflicting uses with Goal 5 resource sites, and does not amend the acknowledged <br />Urban Growth Boundary. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 5 does not apply to this amendment. <br /> <br />Goal 6 Air, Water and Land Resources Quality: To maintain and improve the quality of the air, <br />water, and land resources of the state. <br /> <br />Goal 6 addresses waste and discharges from development and is aimed at protecting air, water, and <br />land from impacts from those discharges. Nothing in the proposal, character of the site, or potential <br />uses indicates a future development that would compromise air, water, and land resources.
