EC 9.8865(5): In cases where the NR zone is applied based on EC 9.2510(1)(b), the <br />property owner shall enter into a contractual arrangement with the city to ensure the <br />area is maintained as a natural resource area for a minimum of 50 years. <br />The applicant is not requesting the NR zone and the subject site is not located in an area that <br />would otherwise require the application of the NR zone. Based on the available information and <br />evidence, this criterion is not applicable. <br />Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) <br />Goal 12 Transportation of the Statewide Planning Goals, adopted by the Land Conservation and <br />Development Commission (LCDC), must be specifically addressed as part of the requested zone <br />change and in the context of Oregon Administrative Rules, as follows. <br />As adopted, OAR 660-012-0060(1) states: <br />(1) If an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, <br />or a land use regulation (including a zoning map) would significantly affect an <br />existing or planned transportation facility, then the local government must put <br />in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the amendment <br />is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. <br />The proposal qualifies for an exception under subsection (9), because the applicant is <br />requesting zoning that is consistent with the Metro Plan designation. <br />(9) Notwithstanding section (1) of this rule, a local government may find that an <br />amendment to a zoning map does not significantly affect an existing or <br />planned transportation facility if all of the following requirements are met. <br />(a) The proposed zoning is consistent with the existing comprehensive plan <br />map designation and the amendment does not change the plan map: <br />(b) The local government has an acknowledged TSP and the proposed <br />zoning is consistent with the TSP; and <br />(c) The area subject to the amendment was not exempted from this rule at <br />the time of an urban growth boundary amendment as permitted in OAR <br />660- 024-220(1)(d), or the area was exempted from this rule but the <br />local government has a subsequently acknowledged TSP amendment <br />that accounted for urbanization of the area. <br />The City of Eugene's adopted Eugene 2035 Transportation System Plan (2035 TSP) serves as the <br />City's acknowledged local transportation system plan.
