<br />10 <br /> <br />Regulatory Framework and Relationship to Other Plans and Policies <br />The Neighborhood Plan is one plan among a variety of land use plans and regulations that exist at the <br />state, regional, and local level. As an adopted land use plan, the Neighborhood Plan has defined <br />relationships to other adopted plans. <br />Statewide Planning Goals <br />Oregon’s Statewide Land Use Planning Goals, related statutes, and <br />administrative rules provide a framework for all local land use planning. State <br />law requires each city and county to adopt a comprehensive plan, which must <br />be consistent with the Statewide Land Use Planning Goals, as well as the <br />zoning and land division ordinances necessary to effectuate the <br />comprehensive plan. <br />Other Adopted Land Use Plans <br />At the local and regional level, the two applicable comprehensive plans are <br />the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan and the Eugene-Springfield <br />Metropolitan Area General Plan (Metro Plan). <br />Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan <br />Envision Eugene is the community vision for how growth is managed in <br />Eugene’s UGB in a way that protects and enhances quality of life and reflects <br />Eugene’s shared values. The Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan, the <br />regulatory component of Envision Eugene, is the basic guiding policy <br />document for land use planning within Eugene’s UGB and addresses the <br />future of Eugene through goals and regulatory policies regarding land use. <br />Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan (Metro Plan) <br />The Metro Plan is the basic guiding land use policy document for regional land use planning and applies <br />to the Cities of Eugene and Springfield and areas of Lane County within the Metro Plan boundary. <br />The Neighborhood Plan must be consistent with applicable provisions in both the Envision Eugene <br />Comprehensive Plan and the Metro Plan. If inconsistencies occur between the Neighborhood Plan and <br />the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan, the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan is the prevailing <br />policy document. If inconsistencies occur between the Neighborhood Plan and the Metro Plan, the <br />Metro Plan is the prevailing policy document. As provided in the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan, <br />for properties located within Eugene’s UGB, if inconsistencies occur between the Envision Eugene <br />Comprehensive Plan and the Metro Plan, the Envision Eugene Comprehensive Plan is the prevailing <br />policy document. <br />Major Related Plans and Programs <br />The River Road and Santa Clara neighborhoods are a patchwork of properties located within the City of <br />Eugene (incorporated) and Lane County (unincorporated), and there are related City and County plans <br />and programs that apply to this area.
