12 <br /> <br />system that is safe for all users, is efficient, equitable, and affordable as well as future oriented and <br />environmentally responsible. <br /> <br />Statewide Planning Goal 13 – Energy Conservation. To conserve energy. <br />Goal 13 provides guidance on the management of land and land uses to maximize the conservation of <br />energy. Consistent with the language of Goal 13, the Neighborhood Plan includes a policy related to <br />renewable resources and energy that reads, “Promote renewable resources and energy conservation to <br />decrease reliance on public utility grid through community education, outreach, and incentives. The <br />amendments do not change any local energy policy or implementing provisions. Therefore, the <br />amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 13. <br /> <br />Statewide Planning Goal 14 – Urbanization. To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from <br />rural to urban land use, to accommodate urban population and urban employment inside urban <br />growth boundaries, to ensure efficient use of land, and to provide for livable communities. <br />Goal 14 requires cities to plan for urbanization within an urban growth boundary. The Neighborhood <br />Plan Boundary includes urban, rural, and urban transition areas, but the Metro Plan amendments will <br />not change any zoning, plan designations, or annexation procedures applicable to properties within the <br />Neighborhood Plan boundary nor do they amend the acknowledged urban growth boundary. <br />The Metro Plan amendments include removing a policy related to annexation in the River Road and <br />Santa Clara areas from the Metro Plan; however, this policy is now included verbatim in the <br />Neighborhood Plan. This policy reads, “Annexation of the River Road and Santa Clara areas will occur <br />only through strict application of state laws and local policies (e.g., ability to extend key urban facilities <br />and services in a timely manner). In each case, Eugene will make every reasonable attempt to provide <br />for annexation only on a voluntary basis and according to prior individual property annexation <br />agreements.” The Metro Plan amendments will not change any annexation procedures and will not <br />force County residents to annex into the City. <br />These amendments do not affect the City and County’s provisions regarding the transition of land from <br />rural to urban uses. Therefore, the amendments are consistent with Statewide Planning Goal 14. <br /> <br />Statewide Planning Goal 15 – Willamette Greenway. To protect, conserve, enhance and maintain the <br />natural, scenic, historical, agricultural, economic and recreational qualities of lands along the <br />Willamette River as the Willamette River Greenway. <br />Goal 15 is designed to “protect, conserve, enhance, and maintain the natural, scenic, historical, <br />agricultural, economic, and recreational qualities of lands along the Willamette River as the Willamette <br />River Greenway.” The River Road-Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan boundary includes lands within the <br />Willamette River Greenway; however, the Metro Plan amendments do not contain any changes to the <br />City’s or County’s Willamette River Greenway regulations. Therefore, the amendments are consistent <br />with Statewide Planning Goal 15.
